Full Description
The Current Legal Problems lecture series and annual volume was established around 60 years ago at the Faculty of Laws, University College London, and has long been recognized as a major reference point for legal scholarship. The continuing strength of Current Legal Problems is its representation of a broad range of legal scholarship opinion, theory, methodology, and subject matter, with an emphasis upon contemporary developments of law. Contributions to the 63rd volume in the series include a discussion on the human rights of children, the difficulties of social welfare in Europe, and the role of the Human Rights Act post 9/11. Other chapters address subjects as diverse as the law of trusts, international trade regulation in the WTO, and UK corporate law reform. From Volume 64, Current Legal Problems will be available as online only, print only, or combined print and online subscriptions from Oxford Journals. The archive back to 1996 will be available immediately from January. Find out more: http://clp.oxfordjournals.org/
