Description:

Our mission is to publish high quality peer reviewed work at the intersection of scholarship on law, culture, and the humanities. All commentaries, articles and review essays are peer reviewed.We provide a publishing vehicle for scholars engaged in interdisciplinary, humanistically oriented legal scholarship. We publish a wide range of scholarship in legal history, legal theory and jurisprudence, law and cultural studies, law and literature, and legal hermeneutics. We encourage reflection on a broad range of text and media that will contribute to dialogue across and among fields about such issues as interpretation, identities and values, authority, obligation, speech, justice and power.”Law, Culture, and the Humanities is an important voice in the movement that sees law not simply as the exercise of power or as a social technology, but as a system of meaning, a way in which the culture marks out possibilities of life for individuals and communities alike.” James Boyd White, Hart Wright Professor of Law, Professor of English, and Adjunct Professor of Classical Studies, University of Michigan, USAThis journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
