Special Issue on Legal Awareness and Legal Culture

Legal Awareness and Legal Culture emphasizes the role of law as both a system of rules and a cultural framework that shapes social behavior, values, and justice. This theme explores how individuals and communities understand, interpret, and engage with legal norms, as well as how legal knowledge influences rights, responsibilities, and access to justice. By promoting legal literacy, ethical responsibility, and respect for the rule of law, legal awareness and legal culture contribute to stronger democratic institutions, social stability, and the protection of human rights.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Legal Awareness and Legal Culture. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Access to justice and legal aid
• Anti-corruption and transparency culture
• Civil law literacy
• Comparative legal culture
• Constitutional rights awareness
• Consumer protection rights
• Criminal law understanding
• Digital rights and cyber law awareness
• Environmental law culture
• Family and marriage law knowledge
• Human rights education
• Intellectual property rights education
• Judicial system understanding
• Labor and employment law awareness
• Legal ethics and professional responsibility
• Legislative process awareness

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Legal Awareness and Legal Culture” should be selected during your submission.
