New Periodicals

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  28 February 2019

Extract

Legal publishing has for the most part remained immune to the phenomenon of what could be called title proliferation—the continual appearance (often followed quickly by their disappearance) of new journals, sometimes of dubious quality, in specialized fields for which there may not be a demand, or even a likely niche. This is not to imply that new law journals are not being published. On the contrary, there is at least anecdotal evidence for the view that new law journals are being published at a faster rate now than a decade, or five years ago. Fortunately, it can be said that those of international and comparative interest are of high quality and deal with emerging fields of law that fully deserve to have new entrants. This column is intended to bring journals of this kind to the attention of our readers. Mention of a journal here should not be taken as an unqualified recommendation for acquisition. Given the number of factors that go into the acquisition decision, it must remain for each person or law library to weigh them.
