Our Mission

The Tulane Journal of International and Comparative Law is a student-run scholarly publication dedicated to issues of international, transnational, and comparative law. Founded at Tulane University as an outgrowth of our historically strong scholarship in these areas, it remains a signpost in the academic world for international and comparative law.

The Journal is dedicated to discussing and debating all facets of international law, from human rights to transnational commerce to the historical evolution of current global law. One of the leading law reviews in international and comparative law, TJICL was recently ranked twenty-first in the nation for international law journals by the ABA International Section and ranks in the top quarter of all law journals in the nation in terms of citation.

The Journal publishes twice a year, once in the fall and once in the spring. One issue of each volume covers a variety of international legal topics, and the other issue is a special thematic issue, usually centered around an internationally related symposium.

Submissions

We are currently receiving submissions for Volume 34 (2026). Thank you for your interest in the Tulane Journal of International and Comparative Law.

The Tulane Journal of International and Comparative Law publishes works by leading academics, practitioners, and judges from around the world on a wide variety of topics of international and comparative law. In order to promote a diverse range of topics, ideas, and opinions, the Journal imposes few restrictions on the submissions, asking only that when considering length, potential authors abide by the Harvard New Articles Length Policy.

TJICL welcomes scholarly articles from legal academics and professionals alike. We publish biannually and take into consideration the following criteria when evaluating article submissions. Each article should be submitted in Times New Roman, 12 point font, with one-inch margins. The Journal prefers articles with fewer than 35,000 words (or roughly 70 law review pages), including footnotes. Longer articles may be published in noteworthy circumstances. The submissions should be in Bluebook format, 22nd edition, with substantial support and analysis.

The Journal also welcomes shorter essays and opinion pieces. While the Journal prefers articles that are primarily legal in scope, multi-disciplinary articles are welcome as well. Unfortunately, we do not accept submissions from current law students of other schools.

Preference will be given to articles written in English, although submissions in other languages are accepted. Please submit all articles to Scholastica or jicl@tulane.edu. Although article submissions are welcome at any time, the two annual publication windows where we actively review and select articles are March 1-August 10 and October 1-January 5.
