S.U. College of Law Sponsors Two New Journals on SSRN

We are pleased to announce two new journals hosted by Syracuse
University College of Law faculty on the Social Science Research
Network (SSRN.) Both journals provide a forum for posting both
completed works and works in progress.

The Housing & Community Development Law journal is edited
by Deborah Kenn, Professor of Law and Director of the Community
Development Law Clinic, & Robin Paul Malloy, E.I. White Chair and
Distinguished Professor of Law, Sr. Associate Dean, and Director of
the Working Group on Property, Citizenship, and Social Entrepreneurism
(PCSE). The journal addresses law, legislation, and policy related to
affordable housing and community development. It addresses various
state and federal programs, case law, public and private efforts at
community revitalization, and systemic problems of housing segregation.

The Insurance Law, Legislation and Policy journal is
edited by Aviva Abramovsky, Assistant Professor of Law &
Robin Paul Malloy, E.I. White Chair and Distinguished Professor
of Law, Sr. Associate Dean, and Director of the Working Group
on Property, Citizenship, and Social Entrepreneurism (PCSE).
The focus of the journal is theoretical, empirical and critical examina-
tions of insurance law, both public and private. The journal covers
concepts of private insurance doctrine defined broadly, and
regulatory interests, public insurance programs, and the interplay
of insurance law -public and private- with the broader legal
structure.
