How do researchers get access to data that is held by state institutions? How do access barriers affect research on law and society? And which strategies have scholars chosen to deal with or contest limited access to institutional data? This collection of essays examines the experiences of scholars in Canada, the United States, and Australia with gaining access to state institutions.

 

The Canadian Journal of Law and Society (CJLS) publishes innovative research that speaks to theoretical and empirical questions in law and society scholarship. Recent articles published in CJLS examined women’s imprisonment in Canada, race and law in Australia, and legal pluralism and healthcare in Nigeria.
