LawZ Magazine - August 2019

The scope of human rights in the international context and of that pertaining to India is always perhaps interpreted as what fits the need of the day, this can rob the civilian of his right to access and understand the law to which he is subject to. We see that with time, human rights have grown in the social and economic sphere as well apart from political rights.
Apart from there social and medical indicators, interestingly, HIV has been linked to access to law as a fundamental indicator of its growth. For combating these STDs, we see that the judicial mechanism is of paramount importance, to understand access to basic healthcare and its dutiful enforcement.
With the rise of radical neo-nationalism, we see an upswing in the use of acid as a weapon of torture. Maybe we should have the laws revisited to see its applicability in the present day.

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.
