From Vulnerable, a collection that tackled the COVID-19 crisis head-on, to Professor Aimée Craft’s engagement with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission ’s Calls to Action in Pathways of Reconciliation, researchers brought clarity and guidance to some of the most pressing issues facing Canadians. Other contributions, like Professor Carissima Mathen’s The Tenth Justice and Professor Natasha Bakht’s In Your Face, delved into complex legal and political issues – years in the making – to offer detailed analysis of the stakes surrounding some of Canada’s most tangled legal conundrums.
Below is a list of the exceptional publications produced in 2020. And it doesn’t stop there. 2021 will begin with an exciting new publication from editors Florian Martin-Bariteau and Teresa Scassa, entitled Artificial Intelligence and the Law in Canada, which, in addition to the contributions of Professors Martin-Bariteau and Scassa, will feature contributions from Common Law professors Marina Pavlović, Colleen Flood, Vivek Krishnamurthy, Jane Bailey, Amy Salyzyn, Wolfgang Alschner and Michael Geist, as well as contributions from Civil Law colleagues Jennifer Quaid and Céline Castets-Renard. The book is now available for pre-order on LexisNexis. Click here for more information.
Congratulations to all the authors and editors who published books in 2020! At a time when knowledge seems more important than ever, your contributions offer guidance and reassurance.
