Here at LawMeme, we're proud to be rolling out a new regular feature: New Yale Scholarship Monday.
LawMeme is run out of Yale Law School; today we're reaffirming that link. One of the great joys of being in a center of learning is seeing the gleam in the eye of a scholar who's just discovered a marvellous new idea. Some days, walking down the main hallway here, you see nothing but gleam. New Yale Scholarship Monday is our way of helping convey some of that excitement to the rest of our readers -- by conveying to them some of the ideas causing scholars' eyes to gleam. Today, we're opening up a new connection -- a new link in the Intellectual Internet, if you like -- between carefully-edited printed legal scholarship and the faster-paced rough-and-tumble world of weblogs.
LawMeme will now be posting abstracts of every piece published in the Yale Law Journal. As issues of the Journal roll off the presses, we'll post summaries of the contents here. Each such story will of course be open to your comments; you're warmly invited to join in discussing the Journal pieces and to offer your thoughts on them. Today, we give you Issue 5 of Volume 113 of the Journal; issues 6, 7, and 8 will arrive over the rest of the semseter.
Stay tuned for other exciting announcements!
