The WULJ is proud to say we have have partnered with the Utrecht Journal of International and European Law!

The journal considers every submission it receives, with the Board of Editors carefully reviewing the articles based on topic, level of academic content and style. In order to be passed on for peer review, the article must be recommended by both the Editors whom were asked to review it in detail and must be approved by a majority of the Editorial Board. The process applies a double blind peer review, meaning that the author's name and affiliation are not made public to the Editorial Board (apart from the Solicitations Editor).

The Warwick Undergraduate Law Journal team is pleased to announce we have partnered with the Cambridge Law Review.

The CLR is an independent legal publication run by students of the University of Cambridge which aims to provide a forum for the discussion of contemporary and cutting-edge legal issues. The journal welcomes contemporary submissions on issues relating to all common law jurisdictions, or those with a former connection to the English common law; European law; international law; comparative pieces; as well as interdisciplinary legal scholarship that has regard to economics and political studies.

The CLR also has a supplementary undergraduate law journal, De Lege Ferenda, introduced in 2017. The journal aims to invite discussion on contemporary issues related to undergraduate law topics. The journal serves as a platform for students to make their first entry into academia. All published articles are made available on HeinOnline.
