ABSTRACT

African Law Studies was the predecessor of the Journal of Legal Pluralism and Unofficial Law, published from 1969 to 1980. In a short overview of these early years of the journal, Richard Abel, one of the former editors-in-chief, shares his experiences with the journal in a period when it was still Africa-focused but when the foundations were laid for both the wider geographical scope and the conceptual-theoretical focus on legal pluralism.
