Journal Identity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Law, Technology &amp; Society<\/em> offers a scholarly forum in which law is reconsidered as an institution, a knowledge practice and a social domain. While maintaining a generalist editorial line open to the full breadth of law, the journal foregrounds the impact of technological transformation on legal institutions and rights, and the reciprocal shaping between law and society as its distinctive areas of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The editorial line embraces methodological pluralism: doctrinal legal analyses, empirical socio-legal research, theoretical and critical legal thought, and comparative and interdisciplinary inquiries are weighted equally in the review process. <em>(For scope details, sub-fields and article types see <a href=\"https:\/\/httlawreview.com\/en\/aim-and-scope\/\">Aim &amp; Scope<\/a>.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Founding Rationale<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Turkish legal scholarship carries a rich tradition of classical doctrinal work. By contrast, empirical research on the social workings of law and interdisciplinary inquiries focused on the impact of technological transformation on legal institutions still develop within a relatively narrow space. The need to gather such work within a bilingual (Turkish\u2013English), peer-reviewed venue open to international circulation reflects both a goal of making local theoretical contributions visible and a goal of providing a concrete contribution to international scholarly debate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Law, Technology &amp; Society<\/em> was founded to address this need. Without departing from the classical concerns of legal scholarship, the journal opens to academic debate the new questions that arise where those concerns intersect with technology and society. Rather than committing to a single theoretical school or methodological approach, the editorial line seeks to bring different legal traditions into critical dialogue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.
