Earlier this week we posted the CFP for the Student Writing Competition on California Legal History, sponsored by the California Supreme Court Historical Society. Last year's prize-winning essays have now been published in California Legal History:
Kyle Deland (University of California, Berkeley), The End of Free Land: The Commodification of Suscol Rancho and the Liberalization of American Colonial Policy
Michael Banerjee (University of California, Berkeley), California's Constitutional University: Private Property, Public Power, and the Constitutional Corporation, 1868–1900
Miranda Tafoya (University of California, Irvine), A Shameful Legacy: Tracing The Japanese American Experience of Police Violence and Racism From the Late 19th Century Through the Aftermath Of World War II
This issue (Vol. 18) of California Legal History also includes other articles of interest, which we will profile in a separate post. The full issue is available here.
