I am very pleased to announce that Leslie Green and I will be editing a new annual, the Oxford Studies
in the Philosophy of Law,
which will publish commissioned and solicited work by leading
established and emerging scholars in the philosophy of law. The first
volume will appear in 2009, and all volumes will appear in both cloth
and paperback. OSPL will be part of the distinguished Oxford Studies series, including existing volumes in Ancient Philosophy, Early Modern Philosophy, Metaphysics, Epistemology, and Metaethics.

The OSPL will include a broad range of problems and
approaches, such as work in general jurisprudence, in the philosophical
foundations of areas of substantive law, and in cognate areas of
philosophy.  Both systematic essays and historical studies will be
welcome.

All papers, including commissioned works, will be subject to review by the editors and by external referees. Oxford Studies in the Philosophy of Law will showcase the best new work in this
growing field.

(Given this new project, I should note that I will be stepping down after seven years as an editor of Legal Theory.)
