Legal academics in Europe publish a wide variety of materials
including books, articles and essays, in an assortment of
languages, and for a diverse readership. As a consequence, this
variety can pose a problem for the evaluation of academic legal
research. This thought-provoking book offers an overview of the
legal and policy norms, methods and criteria applied in the
evaluation of academic legal research, from a comparative
perspective. The expert contributions explore developments relating
to professional vs academic publications, editorial review vs peer
review, rankings of journals and law schools vs other reputation
mechanisms and a range of other evaluation practices and their
intended and unintended effects. Analysing research evaluation
practices across more than ten jurisdictions and multiple contexts,
this insightful book reveals how evaluation practices differ across
Europe. Through this analysis, the book exposes a range of
possibilities for further debate and study. Engaging and topical,
Evaluating Academic Legal Research in Europe will be valuable
reading for legal academics, university and faculty managers,
higher-education policy-makers and administrators as well as
editors of law journals, legal publishers and research foundation
and funding bodies. Contributors include: A. Bakardjieva
