Seven Years of Language & Law

-   Editors' Progress Report on the Journal of the

International Language & Law Association


Hanjo Hamann  and Friedemann Vogel*

Abstract
The International Journal of Language & Law (LL) is entering its third triennium. After three
years under the editorship of its founding editors from Germany and the US, and another
three years under the editorship of the present authors, ILL has developed into an ambitious
academic journal that serves as a forum for questions on the interdependence of language
and law in all of its facets. With its authors coming from six continents, and demanding peer
review procedures rejecting more than half of its submissions, ILL aspires to highest academ-
ic standards. As one of the first three humanities journals in the Free Journal Network, ILL al-
so strives to be a best-practice pioneer in platinum open access publishing. The present pro-
gress report briefly summarizes the development of ILL since its inception in 2012, and wel-
comes the new managing editor for the present three-year term (2019-2021).
