description

This special issue of The Theory and Practice of Legislation presents one of the outcomes of the project launched at the Sir William Dale Centre by Prof. Helen Xanthaki and Dr. Giulia Adriana Pennisi in 2013 and entitled Legislative Drafting and Language. The projects investigates the crossroad between legislative drafting and language/linguistics with the aim to open a new agenda: the use of teachings from the discipline of linguistics in applications useful and relevant to legislative drafting. An example of the results gained thus far are the two workshops on “Legislative Drafting and Language” that took place at the IALS in June 2013 and June 2014 respectively, and witnessed the participation of eminent scholars and experts in the fields of law and language.
