Editors' Notet
We have the pleasure of introducing the seventy-second volume
of the American Journal of Comparative Law. This volume is also
our first as Editors-in-Chief and the first for which the University of
Pennsylvania Carey Law School and the University of Pittsburgh Law
School are the Journal's host institutions. We are grateful to our pre-
decessors, Helge Dedek and Franz Werro for their stewardship of the
Journal and to our colleagues in the American Society of Comparative
Law who have entrusted us with this role. We are delighted that
Professors Richard Albert (University of Texas at Austin School of
Law) and Joshua Karton (Queen's University Faculty of Law) will be
staying on as Book Review Editors.
This volume continues to reflect the work that Professors
Dedek and Werro have done in attracting high-quality submissions
and selecting excellent scholarship through a rigorous peer-review
process. We are committed to sustaining this practice. We look forward
to working with prospective authors, the members of the Journal's
Executive Editorial Board, and peer reviewers, all of whose contribu-
tions are indispensable to the Journal's success.
We encourage those of you among the Journal's readers who write
in the field to submit your work to the Journal, as well as to accept
requests to do peer reviews.
Transitions are moments for setting forth agendas and aspirations.
Our principal aim is to sustain the Journal's rich and longstanding
tradition of providing a forum for scholarly work on comparative law
at the highest level. We are committed to including articles that cover
a wide range of fields of law, legal systems, and methodologies. We in-
vite submissions that fall within a broad definition of comparative law,
including doctrinal scholarship, interdisciplinary work, works of theory,
empirical scholarship, and manuscripts that, while focusing on the law
of a single jurisdiction, engage issues and employ perspectives and
methodologies germane to comparative law. We are also committed to
notifying authors very promptly of decisions on their submissions-es-
pecially if we are not able to offer placement in the Journal-and to
shortening substantially the time from acceptance to publication.
Last but not least, we thank Amber Lynch, who has been the
Journal's Articles Editor and has graciously stayed on through the
