Focus and Scope

JOALS is intended as a platform for young researchers and students wishing to publish their work and who are finding it difficult to find a starting point in the, sometimes unequitable, world of peer-reviewed journals. JOALS aims at producing high quality issues of peer-reviewed papers in relation to all aspects of academic legal research. Its editorial board includes university scholars as well as students who, in the process, gain an insight into how academic publishing processes work in practice.
