Call for Papers: International Review of Law Journal

The International Review of Law Journal is seeking articles for a special issue on domestic violence to be published in Spring 2013. The journal will showcase “papers that address practical and theoretical accomplishments and challenges worldwide in the area of domestic violence. Provided that the focus of the article is law-related, the definition of domestic violence will be construed broadly.”

The International Review of Law Journal is a peer-reviewed, bi-lingual (Arabic and English) international law journal at Qatar University College of Law. All content in the journal is ‘open access,’ meaning articles are free-to-read on the web and authors retain copyright on the print and electronic versions of their work. From its base in the Middle East, the journal aims to bring perspectives from around the world to developments in the law. Submissions are accepted in both English and Arabic.

Selected authors will be invited to Qatar University College of Law to conduct a guest lecture on their area of research.

Deadline: December 1, 2012. Please submit no more than 30 double-spaced pages including footnotes. Complete information on submission guidelines can be found here. im
