Publications in Public Law & Policy
Pacific McGeorge faculty contribute to the development of the law and the formation of public policy in a number of different subject areas, and with lenses that cut across disciplines to identify and analyze methods and structures of public law and policy making.
The Journal of National Security Law & Policy, hosted in part by Pacific McGeorge and located within the Capital Center, publishes articles by academics and professionals twice yearly and is the first law review in the nation devoted to the topic of national security.
The Capital Center's Ethics Across the Professions Initiative, funded by a generous grant from the Sierra Health Foundation, hosts yearly gatherings of scholars and professionals to address ethics topics from the perspectives of different fields.
Pacific McGeorge students also contribute through scholarship to the development of public law and policy. Students in the yearly California Initiative Review seminar produce analyses of ballot measures, which the Center publishes on the web and in hard copy to assist voters, legislators, and other interested entities.
Each summer, student writers for the McGeorge Law Review create analyses of legislation pending in the California Legislature. These "greensheets" are available on the web as the bills make their ways through the legislative process and in bound volumes of the McGeorge Law Review soon after the governor signs them into law.
