The Editors of the Media
and Arts Law Review are preparing a Special Issue of the journal which will
consider various issues of law and regulation that arise in the HBO TV Series
Game of Thrones and the George RR Martin books, upon which the series is based.
Articles should be between 6,000- 8,000 words and may
address any area of law that is relevant to an aspect of Game of Thrones. The
special issue will be published mid-2015.
Proposals for an article of 500 words and including a brief
author bio should be sent to Melissa.dezwart@adelaide.edu.au.
The proposal is due 10 October 2014 and acceptance of the proposal will be
advised by 20 October 2014.
If the proposal is accepted, a full article suitable for
blind double peer review must be submitted by 19 December 2014.
Please contact Melissa.dezwart@adelaide.edu.au
if you have any questions.
The Media & Arts Law Review is the only
Australian-based journal to focus on a broad range of legal issues affecting
cultural life. The Review aims to engage both the academic and
practitioner branches of the profession. It has a wide scope, including:
communications, copyright, cultural heritage, defamation, digitisation,
entertainment, free speech, intellectual property, journalism, privacy and
public interest issues. The Media & Arts Law Review publishes
independently refereed articles from Australia and overseas, as well as
conference reports and book reviews. It also includes a series of regular update
reports on media and arts law developments. These offer a snapshot of matters
such as case law, legislation, law reform, convention developments, and changes
in industry self-regulation. Update reports include coverage of the US, Canada,
the UK, the European Union, New Zealand, Australia and some Asian
jurisdictions.
Editors: Jason Bosland and Melissa de Zwart
