It is with the greatest sadness that wish to inform you that our comrade, colleague, friend and amazing intellectual, Emilios Christodoulides, passed away yesterday. After a long illness that tormented him for the last two years, he passed away peacefully in Edinburgh, surrounded by his partner and three children. Those who knew him are aware of his calm and open spirit, his kindness and gentleness, his sense of humour and joie de vivre, his unwavering faith in principles and values, and, of course, his immense intellect, which set important new directions in constitutional law, labour law, critical and legal theory. Emilios was one of the most impressive critical legal scholars of his generation. He was the managing director of Law and Critique for the last four years and ensured that the journal pioneered the most radical and innovative theoretical trends in critical legal thought. The critical legal community mourns his passing and will appropriately celebrate his life, work and times.
