Abstract/Description:

In France, the evaluation of academic legal publications is not current practice, but it is changing. The national institution in charge of evaluation of research entities takes more and more consideration about legal publications. It is also getting better when submitting academic output for publication and when defending PhD theses. The assessment of legal publications is also important for the recruitment of academic staff (associate and full professors), nationally and locally, but can be increased for promotion of academics and for research funding.
