15 Crime L. & Soc. Change [i] (1991)

handle is hein.journals/crmlsc15 and id is 1 raw text is: Crime, Law and Social Change 15: v, 1991 Editor's announcement After fourteen volumes, Contemporary Crises: Law, Crime and Social Policy is undergoing an extensive renovation. The new title is Crime, Law and Social Change: An International Journal. For many years past editors and others involved with the journal have discussed such a change, although never quite agreeing on a new name. The main issue has been that the original title seemed to leave little room for authors working on less im- mediate topics, exploring past issues of consequence to present life. Addition- ally, it was correctly thought disciplinary names should come first rather than languishing as subtitles. So went many talks over the years. And thus, at long last, it was decided to act. Gone, too, is the pink and rose colored cover which seemed to many to resemble lip gloss. Also, the Journal has increased its frequency to 2 volumes a year. The final act of reconstruction concerns the structure of the editorial board. There is now to be a group of Senior Editors (Frank Bovenkerk, Bruce Bullington, Maureen Cain, Ken Haas, Michael Levi, Alfred McCoy, Pat O'Malley) each representing, to one degree or another, the journal's interna- tional character as well as clearly iterated subject areas. The Senior Editors will have direct responsibility for the initial evaluation of manuscripts in their fields, and consultative responsibility for the overall content of each issue. There is one personnel change to note. Piers Beirne is stepping down after many years of toil as Book Review Editor to the relative tranquility of an Associate Editor. In his place will be Professor Michael Maguire from the School of Social and Administrative Studies, University of Wales. One thing will not change. Crime, Law and Social Change is determined to continue publishing essays and reviews in the critical, left tradition. None of the restructing is meant to imply any philosophic reorientation. Alan Block Editor-in-Chief
