The Cambridge Law Journal
The principal publication produced under the aegis of the Faculty is The Cambridge Law Journal, founded in 1921. The journal is the longest established university law journal in the country, and has earned an international reputation as one of the foremost legal periodicals in the world. The Editor has always been a member of the Faculty, and the members of the Editorial Committee are appointed by the Faculty Board. Three issues are produced each year.
Editor: Prof D.J. Ibbetson, Corpus Christi College
Book Review Editor: Mr Ben Parker
Senior Note Editor: Mrs C.A. Hopkins, Girton College
Secretary and Treasurer: Dr N.G. Jones, Magdalene College
Notes for Contributors are available in PDF format.
International Law Reports
The International Law Reports were begun in 1950 by Professor Sir Hersch Lauterpacht, as a continuation of the Annual Digest of International Law Cases, which began in 1929 under the editorship of McNair and Lauterpacht. In 2003 the series reached volume 124.
Joint Editors: Professor E. Lauterpacht, Trinity College; Professor C.J. Greenwood, London School of Economics and Political Science
Other LCIL publications
The The Lauterpacht Research Centre for International Law also produces the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal Reports (1983-), the Cambridge International Document Series, which began in 1991 with a volume of documents relating to the Kuwait crisis and now includes volumes on the Yugoslav situation and Kosovo, as well as specific topics such as Money Laundering and the situation in Liberia. The ICSID Reports, containing the decisions of the World Bank Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes; and the International Environmental Law Reports are also produced by the Research Centre. The Hersch Lauterpacht Memorial Lecture series is published under the auspices of the Research Centre.
Clarendon Studies in Criminology
The Institute of Criminology participates in the publication of the Clarendon Studies in Criminology (published by Oxford University Press). This is a joint venture with the criminology centres at Oxford and the London School of Economics, and is a continuation of the former Cambridge Studies in Criminology.
Cambridge Editors of the Series: Professor P-O Wikström, Girton College; Dr M. Eisner; Dr A. Liebling
Cambridge Studies in English Legal History
The Cambridge Studies in English Legal History, begun in 1921, is published by Cambridge University Press rather than by the Faculty, but has always had a Faculty member as its general editor. 2002 saw the publication of the fiftieth volume in the series, which includes many classic monographs.
General Editor: Professor Sir John Baker, St Catharine's College
Cambridge Student Law Review
The Cambridge Student Law Review is a student-run academic law journal. Impetus for the project came from an online survey of all Cambridge law students, conducted during Michaelmas term 2003. The survey asked whether students would read, participate in, and/or submit articles to a student law journal. Faculty members and students have demonstrated a high level of interest and support. Among those Faculty members are Professors JR Crawford, DJ Ibbetson, and JR Spencer, Mr Graham Virgo, and Mrs Janet O’Sullivan.
Other Publications
A number of other publications are also, in effect, based in Cambridge, because of the close involvement of Faculty members in their production. For instance, the present and previous Literary Directors of the Selden Society (Professor J.H. Baker, Professor S.F.C. Milsom and Mr D.E.C. Yale) are members of the Faculty.
