2 Comp. Legal Hist. [i] (2014)

handle is hein.journals/clehory2 and id is 1 raw text is: Preface On behalf of the European Society for Comparative Legal History (ESCLH), we are delighted to present the first issue of the second volume of Comparative Legal History. The journal is, of course, only one of our activities-for example we recently contributed a panel to the American Society for Legal History Conference (November 2013)-but Comparative Legal History is central to our mission. We are proud of our first year and grateful to all of those who contributed to make it a success. We are pleased, too, that Adelyn Wilson (Aberdeen), already on our Edito- rial Staff, has, beginning with this issue, taken on the more demanding role of ESCLH Copy Editor for us. She has already made very valuable contributions to the editorial process. We are very grateful to her, to Heikki Pihlajamaki (Articles Editor) and Agustin Parise (Reviews Editor), and to the rest of our International Editorial Board and Editorial Staff for their efforts on our behalf. We look forward, too, to our upcoming autumn issue, our first special issue. Edited by Michael Lobban (London School of Economics) and Willem van Boom (Rotterdam), that volume will focus on the First World War (1914-18) and private law across a number of jurisdictions. Also on the horizon is the ESCLH's third biennial conference, to be held at the University of Macerata (Italy) from 8-9 July 2014. Dedicated to the theme of Traditions and Changes, keynote addresses will be delivered by Michael Stol- leis (Professor Emeritus, Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universitit Frankfurt and former Director of the Max Planck Institute for European Legal History) and Lauren Benton (Professor and Dean, Graduate School of Arts and Science, New York University). In addition to the ESCLH elections, the conference will see our first Van Caenegem Prize awarded. The prize is given to the young legal historian who writes the best article, published or accepted for publication, in Comparative Legal History in the period between ESCLH conferences. The ESCLH is an exciting project made possible by the passion of its mem- bership. We look forward to continuing growth and ask you to join us: see http://esdhblgspot.com.es/p/membership-information.html for more details.
