The authors are invited to address questions and issues arising from the specific area of law relating to their topic. All types of legal approaches will be considered for publication. However, please note that any analysis solely limited to a national legal system will fall outside the scope of the Journal. An international, supranational or transnational legal dimension is imperative. The Board of Editors will select articles based on the quality of research and writing, diversity, and relevance of topic. The novelty of the academic contribution is also an essential requirement.
Prospective articles should be submitted in the form of abstracts (around 800 words) or draft articles (see below) to [email protected] by 22 July 2024. Perspective authors will be notified by 31 July 2024. Final articles shall be delivered by 15 November 2024 and should conform to the journal style guide that is based on OSCOLA. Typically, the JLMI accepts contributions within the range of 10.000 to 15.000 words, including footnotes, but both shorter and longer articles will be considered. Submitted articles will undergo a rigorous double-blind peer-review process. Prior to submission, perspective authors are invited to check the Authors’ guidelines (also with regard to simultaneous submission to other journals) and the JLMI Code of Ethics.
