The Journal of Law in Society was established by students of Wayne State University Law School in September 1997 to provide for the scholarly evaluation of the law in relation to various segments of society. This journal addresses social policy issues in a legal context, with participation from legal scholars, jurists, practitioners and students. Combining legal theory with social reality, the Journal provides a unique forum for the discussion of issues currently affecting American society and serves as an educational and practical tool for its audience. The Journal of Law in Society is managed and edited by students of Wayne State University Law School.
Membership is limited to students who participate in the summer note writing process.
The Journal is published twice annually during the academic year. Additionally, the Journal hosts an annual academic symposium on the campus of Wayne State University during the month of April. A Write-On Packet is Available in the Law Library. Please see Submission Information below to submit an article. The fourth issue will be published in May 2001.
