Blog Symposium

The Intersectional Rewrites project is hosting a blog symposium, dedicated to examining the role intersectional analysis plays and could play in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights. This blog symposium is designed to complement the Intersectional Rewrites book project by providing an open space for creative thinking on the issues in relation to a wider range of case law than can be covered in the book.  

Call for submissions

We invite submissions of blogs of no more than 1,500 words. Blogs should be submitted in English, by 31 October 2023, to blogsymposium@systemicjustice.ngo. A group of authors and editors of Intersectional Rewrites will select blogs for publication and offer editorial support. We expect blogs to appear on the website from January 2024.  

There is no restriction on authors, we invite: students, academics, practising lawyers, and anyone else interested in the subject to submit a blog. The only limitation on subject matter is that blogs should relate to the European Court of Human Rights and the critical paradigm of intersectionality. We expect bloggers will want to have a go at rewriting small parts of judgments or critique specific rulings, but we welcome other approaches. If you have doubts about your planned approach, feel free to get in touch.  

The Intersectional Rewrites website will publish blogs on a dedicated page. Blogs will remain on the website as long as the site remains active. All blogs will be published under the Creative Commons BY SA 4.0 license, meaning that users of the website are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the blogs, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author as long as they cite the source.
