I am pleased to announce a Call for papers for the 3rd Annual PCSE workshop to be held this November in Washington, D.C.  at Syracuse University facilities.   Space is limited to twenty participants.  Dates are November 10-11.  The 2006 PCSE Workshop topics include a focus on dealing with legal and policy issues related to a major disaster.  This includes dealing with hurricanes, earthquakes, floods and other disasters.  In the wake of such events numerous issues arise.  There are emergency response concerns, short-term housing issues, and planning for returning people to redeveloped long-term housing after the initial emergency is over.  There are also many questions with respect to outstanding mortgages, refinancing, insurance, and title to property that come into play. There are environmental consequences, and redevelopment efforts raise concerns with respect to protection of cultural property, neighborhood identity and restoration, as well as reinvigorating civic institutions.  Particular consideration must also be given to the needs of persons with disabilities.  In all cases, questions arise with respect to pre-emergency planning, emergency response efforts, and post-emergency redevelopment.  A special focus of PCSE is on issues at the intersections of property law and disability law, consequently topics addressing response and redevelopment efforts related to needs of persons with disabilities are especially welcome. Papers presented at the Workshop will be considered for publication in a volume of a new book series on Law, Property, and Society published by Ashgate Press.
