Law Text Culture is a trans-continental peer reviewed journal. It publishes critical thinking and creative writing across a range of genres - from artwork and fiction to the traditional scholarly essay. Law Text Culture incites a dialogue crossing disciplines, exciting, in each, fresh perspectives along three axes of inquiry: * Politics: engaging the relationship of force and resistance; * Aesthetics: eliciting the relationship of judgment and expression; and Ethics: exploring the relationship of self and other. Law Text Culture promotes the exploration of these aspects of these themes through special issues. People interested in submitting work to be considered for publication in Law Text Culture are encouraged to address the themes of forthcoming special issues as indicated on the faculty website here. Contact details for guest editors are also provided. The journal does not normally consider unsolicited articles of a general nature unrelated to special issues.

Current Issue: Volume 14, Issue 1 (2010) Law's Theatrical Presence

This special issue of Law Text Culture explores law through the lens of theatrical theory and reads theatre through the paradigm of law. This unique interaction between the disciplines of theatre studies and law has brought together an extraordinary array of scholars working at the interstices of these fields, and delivers, we hope, a fascinating range of perspectives that will serve as both introduction to, and illustration of, the richness of this disciplinary exchange.

Marett Leiboff and Sophie Nield, December 2010.
