Canadian Journal of Family Law
Résumé
Canadian Journal of Family Law is the first interdisciplinary academic journal in Canada to publish articles on a wide variety of family law issues. It is national in its scope, publishing articles in both English and French on topics in either common law or civil law. The Journal also publishes papers originally presented at regional conferences on family law.
Family law is a constantly changing area of law. Shifts in societal values and changes in public policy are reflected in judicial decisions and legislative amendments in the family law arena. Contributors to the Journal have commented upon issues such as same-sex domestic partnerships, the relevance of race to child custody, the impact of domestic violence on child access, equality rights in adoption reform, and how father's rights relate to child support.
The Canadian Journal of Family Law was established at Osgoode Hall Law School of York University following a conversation in 1976 between Professor Graham Parker and a second-year law student, Gene C. Colman. The two were concerned by the lack of an interdisciplinarian Canadian journal in the field, and encouraged the university to seize the opportunity to publish in family law.
In 1978, the first volume of the journal was published with the support of Professor Howard Irving, but it eventually moved to law offices where it was edited by Gene C. Colman. In 1982, the Journal moved to the University of British Columbia Faculty of Law.
The Journal is run by students from the University of British Columbia Faculty of Law. Students participate in all aspects of this endeavor on both the editorial and business side of the Journal.
Although originally supervised by faculty, the goal was to have the Journal become a student-run publication. In the early years, Professor MacDougall dedicated himself to the Journal'''s sustainability, with student editors gradually assuming an increased percentage of the work associated with the operation of the Canadian Journal of Family Law.
