I have recently been appointed Articles Editor of Comparative Legal History. I am really excited to start this role (and I already have work to do!). So I will keep this brief. It is a great opportunity to influence scholarship (beware any normanisers, you will be desk rejected! ha ha haha ha) and to stay in front of academic movements and learn interesting new stuff. The journal covers all times and places, and its only rule is that articles are – as the name suggests – legal (very broadly), historical (anything not entirely current or future), and comparative (at least two things). All of my posts will now be very serious as I am a serious academic with a serious position.
