Submit a Manuscript Author Guidelines

The International Journal of Integrated Law Review (ISSN 2582-7014) invites original, unpublished manuscripts for its forthcoming issue. The journal is open access, quarterly, and double-blind peer reviewed.

Who should submit

Academics, research scholars, doctoral candidates, practising advocates, judicial officers, policy researchers and law students. There is no requirement of institutional affiliation and no seniority threshold. Manuscripts are assessed blind, on their merit.

What we are looking for

  • Public international law and treaty practice
  • Private international law and conflict of laws
  • International human rights law
  • Gender equality and the law
  • Artificial intelligence, algorithmic decision-making and legal liability
  • Data protection, privacy and cyber law
  • Corporate governance and commercial law
  • International trade, investment and arbitration
  • Constitutional law and judicial review
  • Criminal law, justice administration and victimology
  • Environmental and climate law
  • Intellectual property
  • Legal ethics, governance and public policy
  • Comparative law and jurisprudence

This list is indicative. Any subject within the journal's Aims & Scope is welcome.
