The Columbia Journal of Gender and Law welcomes your writing. We encourage the submission of articles, essays, comments, book reviews, and letters. All pieces accepted for publication go through a collaborative editing process between Journal editors and the authors.
Generally, we feature the writing of noted scholars in feminist jurisprudence, including judges, law professors, and law students. Since we are an interdisciplinary journal of law, we also welcome articles about law from other academic disciplines. Recent Columbia Journal of Gender and Law articles have examined the intersections between gender, law, and various other academic fields ranging from psychology to literature.
In a recent nationwide survey of specialty law journals based on author-prominence, the Columbia Journal of Gender and Law ranked as one of the top three journal devoted to gender and law. Tracey E. George & Chris Guthrie, An Empirical Evaluation of Specialized Law Reviews, 26 FSU L. Rev. 813 (1999).
Since we operate by consensus and give members an equal vote in deciding whether to accept an article for publication, all submissions receive careful and fair consideration. We look forward to your contribution.
If you have access to ExpressO, it is the simplest way to submit your piece to JGL (and other journals at the same time). If you are affiliated with a law school, contact your library to see if your school has an ExpressO account.
Otherwise, please send submissions to:
