Abstract

This paper is a foreword by Lord Cooke to the second edition of the New Zealand Students’ Law Journal. This Journal has been replaced in spirit by the (on-going) New Zealand Law Students’ Journal. Although Lord Cooke first provides “rather jaundiced comments” on the proliferation of new legal periodicals he quickly moves to commenting favourably on both The Oxford University Commonwealth Law Journal and the New Zealand Students’ Law Journal. Lord Cooke highlights two purposes of the latter publication. First, it gives a picture of the present interest and concerns of lawyers of the future. Secondly, it provides discipline and satisfaction for successful contributors. He considers that the range of subject-matter and the fact that two thirds of contributors are young women are two particularly striking features of this publication. He concludes by noting that “[f]or the male chauvinist lawyer, the writing may be on the wall”.
