Call for papers for Volume 10 (2019) of the Czech Yearbook of Public & Private International Law (CYIL)

The Czech Yearbook of Public & Private International Law invites contributions to its Special Issue reflecting the Tenth anniversary of our journal.

2019 is the year of several important anniversaries. We have selected the 50 years of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969) as the profile topic for this volume. However, the Special Issue may also  reflect upon the international legal aspects of the events which occurred in 1919, namely the Paris Peace Conference, and to consider the legacy that these events have, or have not, left in international law. 

Authors both from the Czech Republic and from other countries are invited to submit their abstracts by 15 April 2019 and full contributions by 30 May 2018.  

The recommended length of articles is 10 to 15 pages (Times New Roman font, line-spacing 1.5). The articles should contain a short abstract in English, for the Czech speaking authors, also a short abstract in Czech (max. 10 lines for each of them).  Authors are encouraged to follow the style of the previous issues of the journal.

The Czech Yearbook of Public & Private International Law is a peer-reviewed English-language journal published by the Czech Society of International Law, acting in cooperation with the Czech Branch of the International Law Association.

The first volume appeared in September 2010. Since 2014, the Czech Yearbook has been included in the Czech index of scholarly peer-reviewed journals (RVVI). In 2015, it was included in the SCOPUS database. The Yearbook appears both online and in the printed version.

The CYIL accepts articles and comments on Public International Law, Private International Law and European Law.

• V. Review of books

The information on these different rubrics are available on the website of the CYIL (www.cyil.eu).

The CYIL is a peer-reviewed journal. The submitted manuscripts can be accepted, rejected, or sent for revision. Authors are required to ensure that their contributions have the sufficient quality of English and/or were proofread.
