The P2b class representative election of 2013 was held in September as part of the newly established student council system at the Leo Kanner School. The school had introduced the council to encourage student participation in school affairs. Each class was allowed to send one representative, and any student could sign up as a candidate. If more than two candidates signed up, an election would be held. Voting was open to all classmates, except for those running for office.

In the case of class P2b, the race featured Romain Uljee and Shady Morsi as the two main contenders. Uljee’s campaign was formal and modest in scope, centered around practical improvements—his main proposal was to extend break times, which gained him quiet but consistent support. Details of his broader platform, however, remained vague.

Morsi, on the other hand, launched a bold and theatrical campaign under the banner of the Imperial Royalist Dictatorship Party. His platform promised to "dominate the student council," which stirred controversy among students and teachers alike. Critics argued that Morsi misunderstood the purpose of the student council, which was meant to promote cooperation and represent student interests—not centralize authority. His provocative campaign style drew attention but may have ultimately alienated voters.

Vox Iuris (Voice of the Law) is an independent student lead scientific magazine dedicated to legal theory, legal philosophy and legal history. The publication was known as Vox Ius until October, when it adopted its current title. It has a niche distribution within Dutch academic circles and is noted for its compact format and focused scholarly content.

History

Vox Iuris was founded by Shady Morsi, who served as editor-in-chief of Juncto, a separate academic publication. The idea for the magazine developed while Morsi worked with Juncto editor Appelhof, who specialized in legal history. Although Appelhof's expertise and scholarly focus heavily influenced the magazine's conception, legal historical content did not align with the broader aims and scope of Juncto itself. Recognizing the need for a dedicated platform, Morsi sought to establish a separate venue for research in legal history and related fields.

The magazine was initially proposed as an official publication of the Algemeen Rechtshistorisch Dispuut Salvius Julianus, a legal history student association. However, the board of Salvius Julianus did not formally recognize it as the association's official magazine. This lack of formal recognition resulted in Vox Iuris operating as an independent scholarly outlet from its earliest issues, free from institutional constraints but also without organizational backing. The publication underwent a name change from Vox Ius to Vox Iuris in October 2024. The correction was prompted by readers and contributors who identified a linguistic inaccuracy in the original Latin construction. "Vox Iuris" properly translates to "Voice of the Law" or "Voice of Justice," with "iuris" being the correct genitive form of "ius" (law).

Since December 2024, the magazine has expanded its reach to members of several other legal history associations in the Netherlands. These partnerships have broadened its distribution network while maintaining its independent character. The associations now receiving Vox Iuris include: Forum Romanum at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. JSV Justus Lipsius at Leiden University and Philips van Leyden b.p. also at Leiden University

Content and structure

Vox Iuris is published on a bi-monthly schedule, releasing six issues annually. Each issue consists of two independently researched articles that do not follow a common theme or unified editorial thread. This approach allows for diverse scholarly contributions across the fields of legal theory, philosophy, and history without the constraints of thematic coherence. The magazine typically contains fewer than twenty pages per issue. Its deliberately small scale is designed to support focused, deeply researched scholarly contributions rather than broad, issue-based editions common in larger academic journals. This compact format reflects a commitment to quality and depth over quantity.

The readership of Vox Iuris is highly specialized and deliberately narrow in scope. Circulation is estimated at between twenty and one hundred readers, primarily comprising students and researchers with specific interests in legal theory, legal philosophy, and legal history. This niche audience reflects the magazine's commitment to specialized scholarly discourse rather than popular accessibility.

Unlike conventional academic journals, Vox Iuris does not maintain a formal editorial board or a fixed roster of contributing writers. Shady Morsi oversees the publication as editor-in-chief, but the editorial process remains open and participatory. Contributions and editorial input are welcome from any interested participant with relevant expertise or research. Appelhof, whose work in legal history inspired the magazine's creation, is consistently credited for the conceptual foundation of the publication. Morsi has described the publication as a "living Forum Romanum," evoking the historical Roman public space where ideas were debated and exchanged freely. This characterization reflects the magazine's open and participatory character, emphasizing dialogue and scholarly exchange over hierarchical editorial control.
