The Journal of Hindu Studies publishes two issues a year, one guest-edited and one open for submissions, both on the same broad annual theme. These themes focus on theoretical meta-issues that are relevant to all fields within Hindu Studies, thus linking scholars in interdisciplinary dialogue. – Publisher’s blurb.
Oxford Encyclopedia of Legal History
The Oxford International Encyclopedia of Legal History, edited by Stanley N. Katz, is the first encyclopedia of law to provide both historical and contemporary comparisons of the world legal systems. Approximately 1,000 articles explore the traditions of Ancient Greek Law, Ancient Roman Law, Medieval Roman Law, Chinese Law, English Common Law, Islamic Law, United States Law, and the laws of such other regions as Africa, Latin America, and South Asia. Major categories of law explained in detail include private law (contract, tort, civil procedure), public law (statutory, criminal, etc.), and higher or constitutional law. – Publisher’s blurb.
