CFP: CUNY L. Rev. & Online Companion—Social Justice Mission

CUNY Law Review

The City University of New York Law Review invites submissions for its spring 2015 issue and for its online companion, the Footnote Forum.

We are currently seeking submissions for our 18th volume, which will continue the journal’s tradition of advancing legal scholarship highlighting the touchstones of our publication’s work—including civil rights, progressive legal reform, the impact of the law on marginalized communities, international human rights, and attorney insights on law and organizing. In addition, we are interested in reflections analyzing how recent developments in the law have affected public-interest practices in New York and beyond.

For our Spring 2015 issue we will select articles that advance the social justice mission of the journal.

We are interested in one-page abstracts or finished manuscripts you may have for consideration by our editorial board. Submissions should be remitted to cunylr@mail.law.cuny.edu. Abstracts will be considered through August. Finished manuscripts for approved abstracts have a deadline of August 31, 2014. Offers to publish and final decisions on all submissions will be made on a rolling basis and will be finalized by mid-September.

The journal is continually seeking shorter, more time-sensitive contributions—such as comments on recent federal or state case law, critiques of legislative proposals, and legally relevant analyses of current events—for inclusion in our evolving digital platform, Footnote Forum.
