Abstract
In this article the founding editor of the International Journal of Discrimination and the Law charts the origins of the journal in the 1990s and its subsequent development. The rationale of the journal is discussed, specifically why it was considered that this journal was needed and its valuable contribution to scholarship. The broad scope of the journal in terms of the dimensions of discrimination and the wide range of jurisdictions covered made it unique at that time. The contributions of those involved in the earlier stages of the journal’s life are highlighted as well as the challenges it experienced. The article also refers to the transition to a new publisher after several years and the changes that followed, as well as the positive prospects for the future.
