Submitting to the Print Edition
The Journal welcomes the submission of articles, essays, and book reviews. The most competitive submissions will be high quality legal scholarship that is of a particular interest to a conservative and libertarian audience. Each manuscript should be typed double-spaced, preferably in the Times New Roman 12-point typeface.
Submissions by Scholastica are strongly preferred. While we also accept submissions via email, we cannot guarantee that email submissions will receive a timely response or acknowledgment. Please do not email article submissions to the Editor-in-Chief or copy the Editor-in-Chief on article submissions to the JLPP email.
Law students should note that while student writing is considered, we have no process for publishing student notes that are not by Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy editors or recent alumni. As such, competitive student submissions will be of comparable length, scope, and quality as scholarship written by legal academics.
Submitting to JLPP: Per Curiam
Per Curiam is the premier publication for cutting-edge, timely legal scholarship and opinion. We aim to publish scholarly essays and policy pieces and will consider pieces with a wide range of word counts (starting at a minimum of 1,500 words). It is a place where practitioners, scholars, and those in the legal and policy fields can come together to discuss current legal issues, share ideas, and shape the conservative and libertarian legal landscape.
If you are interested in submitting a piece, please email JLPP.PerCuriam@gmail.com or visit our submissions page.
