The Legal History Review, inspired by E.M. Meijers, is a peer-reviewed journal and was founded in 1918 by a number of Dutch jurists, who set out to stimulate scholarly interest in legal history in their own country and also to provide a centre for international cooperation in the subject. This has gradually through the years been achieved. The Review had already become one of the leading internationally known periodicals in the field before 1940. Since 1950 when it emerged under Belgo-Dutch editorship its position strengthened. Much attention is paid not only to the common foundations of the western legal tradition but also to the special, frequently divergent development of national law in the various countries belonging to, or influenced by it. Modern and contemporary, as well as ancient and medieval history is considered. Roman law and its later development, as well as canon law, have always been particularly important; in addition the history of the English Common Law has been extensively studied.

Its prescient receptivity to cultural studies, its admirable emphasis on intellectual and scholarly quality over 'partiinost' and its unusually rigorous adherence to publication schedules have made The Russian Review a model of academic scholarship and professionalism. The Russian Review appears punctually, rarely contains typographical errors and stylistic solecisms, teems with stimulating, original insights, and invariably explores new ground. It is one of the only professional journals worth reading from cover to cover, and its achievements are all the more impressive in light of its independence from dues-paying organizations - Helena Goscilo, University of Pittsburgh.

No recent decade has been so powerfully transformative in the United States and much of the world as the 1960s. The era's social movements - from civil rights, to feminism, student and youth protest, environmentalism, and nascent conservativism - dramatically changed the political culture of the developed west. Meanwhile, the decade's decolonization struggles altered the nature and balance of global power. In Communist Europe, incipient democracy movements set the stage for the revolutions that ended the Cold War. Collectively, these movements gave the 1960s their signal identity, and dominate understandings of their historical legacy. Whether in the United States, or across the globe, no recent decade has had such an enduring grip on politics, culture, and consciousness as the 1960s. The Sixties: A Journal of History, Politics and Culture, features cross-disciplinary, accessible and cutting-edge scholarship from academics and public intellectuals. In addition to research essays and book reviews, The Sixties includes conversations, interviews, graphics, and analyses of the ways the 1960s continue to be constructed in contemporary popular culture. What people are saying about The Sixties: 'At last an academic journal one can learn from and look forward to reading.' - Richard Flacks, University of California at Santa Barbara and co-founder of Students for a Democratic Society 'The 1960s are ripe for historical interpretation, and The Sixties offers rich and diverse perspectives on the politics and culture of that critical era--from the local to the international, from personal accounts to scholarly reviews and new research.' - Estelle Freedman, Stanford University 'The globe-transforming dramas of the 1960s have become crucial albeit contested reference points in many of the most passionately fought cultural and political wars in our complex 21st-century present. This brilliantly conceived journal comes just at the right moment, providing a fantastic array of deeply researched, innovatively analytic work that helps fill the many gaps in our historical understanding -- and hopefully can suggest new departures for the future as well.' - Dagmar Herzog, Graduate Center, City University of New York Become a fan of The Sixties on facebook: www.facebook.com/thesixtiesjournal Disclaimer for scientific, technical and social science publications: Taylor & Francis makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 'Content') contained in its publications.
