LawZ Magazine - September 2020

In this issue

Reproductive responsibility has been given the status of a cardinal duty of a woman since time immemorial, however, with liberalisation of culture and with the recent interest in curtailing population there have been positive steps taken towards reproductive autonomy. A motley of incongruous contentions including staunch religious viewpoints have made an effective effort in shaping the modern law of reproductive autonomy. In spite of consistent progress towards ‘autonomisation des femmes’ since decades, there has been a recent growing consensus toward the focus on reproductive responsibility, perhaps due to the unperceptive influence of the projected acute drop in Global Fertility Rates. In light of the recent focus on police, both globally and within India, a deep analysis to the effect of Custodial Death and its shortcomings is elaborated.

LawZ wishes its readers a safe read.

LawZ Magazine Description:

LawZ released its first issue in August, 2001. The intent was to create a magazine about the law and the legal field, but with a difference. LawZ is India s first comprehensive monthly law magazine for all.The magazine not only covers events relating to the Indian legal system but also makes an effort in comparing it with the legal systems across the globe.

Instead of being of interest only to lawyers and others involved in the legal profession, the aim was to create something that could be read, understood, and even enjoyed by those who do not have formal knowledge of law. In short, it was to be more than a dry, ponderous collection of articles written in the oft arcane language of the court. Nor was it to focus solely on India, because today no news is complete unless it touches on the world at large.

The magazine reaches to all the judges of the Supreme Court, High Courts, Bar Council of India, Lawyers, Law Colleges and Institutions, top Indian and foreign Law Firms, Indian Corporates and Multinational Companies and Legal departments of government and Semi-government agencies, Corporate houses and several Embassies.

The magazine is presently in its 15th year of publication and is receiving tremendous response and appreciation from all the sections of the society and today is the only legal magazine, which has attained its present status in such a short span of time.

We’ve come a long way since our first issue. Today, it is regarded as a benchmark and a trailblazer in legal journalism.
