Forum Submissions

In addition to its ordinary contributors, the Cornell International Law Journal Forum accepts submissions for publication from a variety of authors, including scholars, practitioners, and students of international law. For authors interested in submitting an article, we recommend that it be around 2000 to 2500 words and concern a recent development in international law, foreign law, or a domestic law with a substantial international component. In-text hyperlink citations are encouraged. Please submit all submissions and a copy of the author’s CV to Brianna Ramos at cornelliljblog@gmail.com. Please include your name, affiliation, and a short biography. Once you submit your piece, our editor will get back to you as soon as possible, if it’s substantially publishable. We look forward to hearing from you!
