This programmatic anthology summarizes the current discussion on the significance and function of strategic legal communication. Based on the American model, public relations in and around court proceedings in Germany and Europe has significantly professionalized and expanded, including prosecutors and courts. This volume features important representatives of the theoretical foundation and further development of the field, as well as leading voices from the practice side, including journalism, prosecutors, courts, and consulting. Thus, the book provides the first comprehensive representation of the status quo of litigation PR in the German-speaking world. English abstracts and a keyword index also make the volume usable as a reference work. Contributions from Alice Schwarzer, James Haggerty, Ines Heinrich, M.
