Topic: The International Section of the NYSBA, with the support of Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton, is pleased to announce the annual Albert S. Pergam International Law Writing Competition.
The writing competition, which began in 1988, fosters legal scholarship among law students in the field of international law.

Furthermore, the competition presents an opportunity for students to submit law review quality articles to the Section for possible publication in one of its publications.
Law students are cordially invited to submit an article concerning ANY area of public or private international law or practice.
First Prize: $2000
Award: The winner will receive $2000 and publication of the article (subject to editorial approval) in the NY State Bar Journal, the NY International Law Review, or the International Law Practicum.
