Journal of Law and Religion Moves To New Editorial Home At Emory

National Jurist reports this month that the Journal of Law and Religion, previously published at Hamline University School of Law, has moved to a new editorial home at Emory University. In a "refreshed editorial direction," the Journal plans to expand its coverage to include the place of law in religious canons, sacred texts and religious traditions; and the place of ritual and liturgy in the operation of state legal and political systems. The well-respected Journal has been housed at Hamline since its founding in 1982.  According to the Journal's website, Emory's Center for the Study of Law and Religion will publish the Journal through Cambridge University Press.  Apparently the effective date of the move was Aug. 15.
