As it has been announced in the RCSL 2011 Summer Newsletter, next year will occur the 50th Anniversary of the ISA-RCSL foundation. To celebrate the Jubilee event a special Conference will be held in Warsaw, Poland, thanks to the organizational support of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology of Law of the University of Warsaw, and, more particularly, thanks to the enthusiatic committment of Jacek Kurczewski, Malgorzata Fuszara and their colleagues. The choice of the Jubilee Conference’s location has been almost compulsorily, due to its higly symbolic value: it is the place where, during the Fifties of the last century, Adam Podgòrecki began to envisage the need to promote a stable international forum to gather socio-legal scholars and promote altogether debates, studies and research. For the purpose, Podgòrecki travellled in Europe and USA to establish personal contacts with other internationally re-known scholars. Having obtained their explicit support, at the ISA World Congress held in Washington DC in 1962, he was able to propose togheter with W.E. Evan the official establishment of the RCSL. In that occasion Renato Treves was elected first RCSL President. Given the recurrence in 2012 of the 20th anniversary of Treves’ death and the recent death of Evan, the RCSL Jubilee Celebration will be also a way to honour their remarkable contribution. The plan of the Conference format is already advanced, but still in progress. Full details on the final programme will be provided, together with general informations, will be provided in the RCSL 2012 Spring Newsletter.
