The Law & Society Association has issued the following announcement:
Editor Sought for Law & Society Review
The term of Editor of the Law & Society Review,
Joachim Savelsberg and Tim Johnson, will end with the conclusion of
Volume 50 (2016). The Editor Search Committee is eager to receive
nominations, including self-nominations, for this important position in
the law and society community.
The Editor's term is for three
years (Vols. 51-53, 2017-2019) and includes an ex officio appointment to
the Board of Trustees and Executive Committee of the Law and Society
Association. Given the time needed for transition and the lead time to
publication, the new editor should expect to begin receiving initial
manuscript submissions beginning in February 2016; the current editors
envision a period of overlapping responsibilities with the current
editors handling submission of revised manuscripts and the new editor(s)
handling initial submissions.
Persons interested in learning
more about the Editor's position, expressing interest in the position,
or making nominations should contact a member of the Editor Search
Committee as soon as possible, and no later than Sept 1, 2014. (Please
include nominees’ e-mail and mailing addresses.) Teams of co-editors are
welcome.
All members of the Editor Search Committee will be attending the 2014
Annual Meeting of the Law and Society Association in Minneapolis, MN
(May 29-June 1).If you will be attending the meeting and have thoughts
or questions about the position or suggestions about nominees, we
encourage you to speak with one of us on the Search Committee.

Formal applications or expressions of interest should be e-mailed or mailed to the chair, Shari Diamond.
