No. 28 (2025) | The Journal of Law, Social Justice and Global Development

Special Issue: 'Communicating Culture, Sustainability and Civil Society'

Special Issue Editors: Jonathan Vickery, Stuart MacDonald, and Nicholas J. Cull

This is a collaborative issue: it offers submissions collated from a range of contributors, who were engaged while the editors were networking for a broader project on international cultural relations. That broader project generated an edited volume (Edward Elgar, 2025) and this special issue. This special issue is of broader scope, and features a diversity of both essays and research papers on international current affairs (Heinicke, Dragićević-Šešić and Mijatovic, Kim, Gad and Johnsen) as well as on education, human rights and global creative economy (Lempert, Byun and Vickery, and Yang).

This is a photographic image of a man seated atop an unidentified mountain location. He is selling plastic bubble blowing tubes to children. Against the blue of the sky and vast landscape in the distance, the lone figure is symbolic of the contingency of our civic life in the expanse of planetary environment.
