The New York University Law Review invites papers for its Fall Symposium, Voting and Representation: New Issues and Challenges, to be published in its October 2021 issue, 96 N.Y.U. L. Rev. (No. 4). The Law Review anticipates inviting authors of the papers selected for publication to participate in a virtual Symposium, with limited in-person components subject to public health recommendations, on October 1 and October 8, 2020. The Symposium is presented in conjunction with the Brennan Center for Justice.

This dynamic Symposium will address the urgent issue of who counts and who gets counted in our democracy. We invite papers that consider how to preserve and protect our democracy, including voting and fair representation, addressing these critical issues from a diversity of perspectives. We would be especially pleased to consider submissions from practitioners and scholars in the early stages of their academic careers.
