Note from the Book Review Editor

Jennifer Balint

This volume marks the beginning of my three-year term as

Book Review Editor, continuing the excellent work of my prede-

cessor, Jinee Lokaneeta. Law & Society Review will continue to

review a range of books in the law and society tradition, and will

strive to be as international as possible. To that end, some of the

books reviewed will not have been published in English and are

thus presently inaccessible to an English speaking audience.

Please do contact me with any suggestions in relation to titles.

The recipients of the Herbert Jacob Book Prize by the Law &

Society Association, that recognizes new and outstanding work in

law and society scholarship, will feature in the review section,

providing an opportunity to those not able to attend the Associa-

tion meeting to engage with this new work. I will also be liaising

with the journal editors to where possible connect the reviews to

key and emerging themes of the journal. I look forward to work-

ing with you all.
