Bloomsbury Advances in Forensic and Legal Linguistics

This series publishes cutting-edge empirical and theoretical research in all areas of forensic and legal linguistics that engage with an intersection between language and law, crime, evidence and justice. This includes areas of the discipline that are well-established and that have traditionally formed the ‘core’ of the discipline, but it also includes work in the many newly emerging areas of forensic and legal linguistics that are pushing boundaries and extending the scope of the field. It will reflect the growing interdisciplinary nature of work in the field, publishing research from collaborations between linguistics and law, psychology, criminology, policing, computer science and others. It will publish books that focus on laws and legal systems around the world and all stages of the legal process across international jurisdictions, as well as those which develop innovative methodologies for analysing spoken and written linguistic evidence that might be central to criminal cases.
