The Legal Forum is excited to announce the Symposium and topic for Volume 2010: Crime, Criminal Law, and the Recession.

The Symposium will provide one of the first opportunities for scholars and practitioners to explore an overlooked aspect of the current recession — changes in crime and criminal law. Panels may include the impact of inequality on crime, state budget constraints and changes in punishment and sentencing, alternative crime prevention strategies, and white-collar and corporate crime. The Volume will include articles from all of the Symposium participants and will be an authoritative and timely guide on changes in criminal law during recessionary times.

The Legal Forum is also accepting submissions for Volume 2010. For more information, please click on Submissions.
