The journal will consider articles which cover more international aspects – such as developments in the international context – but these should be written in a comparative manner, and be of interest to a European readership.
Relevant Themes

Guidelines for Submissions
- The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
- The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
- Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
- The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
- The EJLT can accept publications written only in the English language. Articles must be written using British English throughout (e.g., -ise, not ize, as in ‘nationalise’). The only exception to this is where ‘z’ is used in official names of organisations and when quoting text verbatim that follows American spelling.
- Articles should not normally exceed 12,000 words, including footnotes. We will exceptionally accept longer articles of sufficient quality up to a maximum of 15,000 words including footnotes where the author is prepared to cover the financial cost of extra desk editing. This is more of an exception than a rule, and the standard word limit, therefore, remains at 12,000 words and should be adhered to.
- The EJLT strongly recommends the Oxford Standard for Citation of Legal Authorities (OSCOLA) as their preferred style, although this is not mandatory.
