Submissions
The East Asia Law Review (EALR) -- formerly the Chinese Law and Policy Review -- is an independent journal at the University of Pennsylvania Law School. We are proud to announce that we are now accepting submissions for our next scheduled issue. The deadline for submissions for our next issue is January 15, 2009.
The mission of the East Asia Law Review is to provide a forum for the study of the law of East Asian nations. Submissions should be related to the law, its practice, implementation or implications in East Asian nations. Submissions are accepted from anyone with an interest in East Asia, including but not limited to legal academics, legal professionals and students.
There are no length requirements and submissions may be of any type, including articles, essays, regulations reviews, and book reviews. Submissions must be in English and must be properly cited - Bluebook format for footnotes is appreciated. EALR will select the highest quality manuscripts for publication. Please see our complete submission guidelines for more details.
Manuscripts should be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word format.
Once EALR and the author have agreed to publish a piece, our editors will check it for accuracy and proper citation format to conform to the 18th edition of the Bluebook. The finished product will then be published online and in print. We take all steps possible to offer the broadest possible dissemination of your work, and all future issues of EALR will be published on Westlaw (we are currently in negotiations with LexisNexis and are researching databases more widely available in East Asia). By submitting your work, you acknowledge that it may be published by the East Asia Law Review, and are consenting to such publication.
Please note that EALR is an independent publication at the Law School. Its editors are selected from the Law School's J.D., LL.M., and S.J.D. candidates and Professor Jacques deLisle of the Law School serves as advisor to the editorial board.
