In addition to our regular fall issue, The Yale Journal of Law & the Humanities will be publishing a special symposium issue inspired by the themes of Claire Priest's Credit Nation: Property Laws and Institutions in Early America. We are accepting outside submissions for this special issue until 5 p.m. ET on June 21st.
We welcome articles on the following themes:
- The history of property and its relation to commerce and the economy
- Property and slavery
- Colonial/founding era politics and institutions
- The institutional foundations of capitalism
Authors should submit their work in a Microsoft Word document with double-spaced text to yjlh@yale.edu with the subject line: Credit Nation Symposium Submission. All symposium submissions will be peer-reviewed, and accepted authors will be invited to the Zoom event currently scheduled for September 17th.
