Always Look at The Pocket Part

JB

The Yale Law Journal has started an innovative experiment in the traditional world of law reviews-- The Pocket Part. TPP is not another online law review, and it's not another blog. Rather it's an electronic companion to the regular editions of the Yale Law Journal, featuring shorter versions of articles from the Journal plus commentary by other scholars, along with a comments section so that still others can participate in the discussion. This is an excellent way to supplement the scholarly work of law reviews and I wish the editors great success. If The Pocket Part catches on, I predict it will change the way we think about law reviews and what one can do with them. In particular, TPP shows how you might turn a one-to-many medium published infrequently with high barriers to participation into a participatory medium that permits a continuous conversation and that is organized around scholarly work of the highest quality.
