1. Call for Papers: Disarmament from the Margins. As part of an AHRC-funded project ‘Disarming International Law: forgotten pasts and future possibilities on a global front line’, the organisers (Charlie Peevers, University of Glasgow and Anna Hood, Auckland Law School) are inviting submissions for a conference exploring how disarmament is envisioned, contested, and enacted beyond traditional state-centered frameworks. The conference will take place from 7 – 8 October 2025, at the Pearce Institute, Govan, Glasgow (in-person and online). They seek to highlight the contributions of marginalized actors, places, and ideas in shaping disarmament discourse and practice. To apply, send a description of your proposed contribution (around 300 words or so) and a two line bio to scottishdisarmamentproject {at} gmail(.)com by the extended deadline of 30 May 2025. They welcome diverse contributions, including academic papers, panel discussions, visual and performance art, and other non-traditional formats. Early career researchers, activists, and practitioners—particularly from the Global South—are strongly encouraged to apply. For full details of the Call for Papers see here.
