Mission & Scope
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 Law School in New Orleans, Louisiana, as an outgrowth of that institution's historical tradition, 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, JICL 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.
Editorial Team & Members
Members are second- and third-year law students at Tulane University. Senior members, with the help of junior members, manage and edit each issue for publication, teaching new members in the process.
