1 Liverpool L. Rev. 6 (1979)

handle is hein.journals/lvplr1 and id is 1 raw text is: EDITORIAL

With this issue, a new legal periodical is launched and one which it is hoped
will be of some use and interest to academics, students and practitioners.
It is worthwhile at the outset to put foward some of our basic aims. Prime
amongst these is the wish and intention to develop a legal journal with the
highest academic standards. This we hope to achieve by encouraging the
publication of significant material both by those well-known and respected
and by those whose names are not as yet so well-known. We accordingly
look forward to receiving such material from our readers. We hope to keep
reasonably up to date with current developments by the publication of
comments, casenotes and so forth, and we would wish to expand the contents
of this section as conditions permit. It is intended to incorporate in the near
future, for example, a digest of Merseyside cases of interest. By means of a
book review essay as well as a book notices section. it is our desire to
encourage a rather deeper analysis of legal publishing trends than is usually
possible.
We had hoped that this issue would appear rather earlier than it has done,
but a considerable number of production difficulties intervened to prevent
this. We would like to apologise therefore both for this and for any infelicities
that may have crept into this issue. It is hoped that with the introduction
of new technology into the Liverpool Polytechnic printing facilities, future
issues will be free of technical defects. We would indeed like to record our
grateful thanks to the printing officers of the Polytechnic for their hard
work with regard to the production of this new journal.
It is our intention to produce two issues of the Review a year. However, for
1980 a special volume devoted to jurisprudential matters will appear. It is
anticipated that this extended issue will include a number of papers delivered
at the conference of the Association for Legal and Social Philosophy to be
held at Liverpool Polytechnic in Spring 1980, as well as other material.
We look forward to hearing the reaction of our readers, including suggestions
as to the future contents.
Dr. M. N. Shaw,
General Editor
