Abstract

This conference celebrates 50 years of our journal “Verfassung und Recht in Übersee”. “Verfassung und Recht in Übersee“, literally “constitution and law overseas”, was founded in 1968. In 1974, acknowledging the fact that from the outset it was addressed towards an international audience it got an English subtitle: “A Quarterly on law and modernization”. In 1984, to avoid all complex theoretical discussions about concepts like modernization, development, developing areas, third world etc. the subtitle was changed to “Law and Politics in Africa, Asia and Latin America”. These changes provide the first hints about the story I will tell. The birth of the journal within the framework of traditional German comparative law and state theory, the decision to link up with the international law and development community, and in the end the more modest claim to be an interdisciplinary journal that focusses on geographical areas neglected in German scholarship.
