Stair Society

The Stair Society is a learned society devoted to the study of Scots law. It was instituted in 1934 "to encourage the study and to advance the knowledge of the history of Scots Law,"〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.stairsociety.org/home.htm )〕 and is named for James Dalrymple, 1st Viscount of Stair, the seventeenth century Lord President of the Court of Session considered the most important of Scots Law's Institutional Writers. It is comparable to the Selden Society, an organisation devoted to the study of English legal history.
==Society==
The Society has around four hundred and fifty members from Scotland and around the world.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.stairsociety.org/memb.htm )〕 The Society holds an annual general meeting in November, which includes a guest lecture. Recent distinguished figures to have addressed the Society included Alan Watson, Rogers Professor at the University of Georgia School of Law, and John H. Langbein, Sterling Professor of Law and Legal History at Yale Law School. The Society is run by a Council, chaired by Professor John Cairns, Professor of Legal History at the University of Edinburgh School of Law.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.law.ed.ac.uk/staff/johncairns_27.aspx )〕 The President of the Society is Lord Hope of Craighead, Deputy President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom.
As part of its aim of furthering study Scots legal history, the Stair Society produces printed and electronic publications, specifically an annual volume along with occasional other publications. The Society's Literary Director is Hector MacQueen, Professor of Private Law at the University of Edinburgh School of Law.
The Society also provides a postgraduate scholarship to support someone undertaking doctoral research (i.e. leading to degrees of Ph.D. or D.Phil.) in the area of Scots legal history. The scholarship has had one successful graduate so far but is currently suspended.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.stairsociety.org/scholarship.htm )
