Bristol Studies in Law and Social Justice
Series Editors: Alan Bogg, University of Bristol, UK and Virginia Mantouvalou, University College London, UK
This series explores the role of law in securing social justice in society and the economy. The focus is on ‘social justice’ as a normative ideal, and the law as a critical tool in influencing (for good or for ill) the social structures that shape people’s lives. The series has a broad jurisdictional coverage, including single-country and comparative studies, as well as studies in international law. Find out more.
Diverse Voices
Series Editors: Se-shauna Wheatle, Durham University and Jonathan Herring, University of Oxford
This series gives readers an opportunity to hear voices that have so often been silenced; the voices of black and minority ethnic, women, disabled, LGBTQI, working class and neuro-atypical people. The series presents a ground-breaking new platform for debating and understanding the impact of the law on different marginalised groups and critiquing the law from the perspective of these groups.

Perspectives on Law and Access to Justice
Series Editors: Jess Mant and Daniel Newman, Cardiff University

It will draw connections between research from different disciplines of law, such as civil and criminal law, family law, housing law, immigration law and social welfare law. It will forge a coherent field of access to justice scholarship; facilitating a multifaceted critique of the key issues, and incorporating a diverse range of perspectives that will shape the future directions of this emerging field.
