Journal Guide

The most lively and interesting journal in the field of general international law, certainly in Europe, possibly anywhere.'Professor James CrawfordUniversity of CambridgeThe European Journal of International Law is firmly established as one of the world's leading journals in its field. With its distinctive combination of theoretical and practical approaches to the issues of international law, the journal offers readers a unique opportunity to stay in touch with the latest developments in this rapidly evolving area.Each issue of the EJIL provides a forum for the exploration of the conceptual and theoretical dimensions of international law as well as for up-to-date analysis of topical issues.Additionally, it is the only journal to provide systematic coverage of the relationship between international law and the law of the European Union and its Member States.

The modern theory of law is a general theory of law and society, which must be compatible with all existing legal systems in the social reality of the law. With regard to this social reality of the law, which determines all human experiencing and acting, legal theory is understood as an analytic hermeneutical and social science of action that is exclusively theory and not the philosophy of law. Above all, general legal theory in a world society that is now growing closer is concerned with encountering the equalization of national law with the law in general and avoiding the errors of a purely philosophical and moral legal concept and a strictly analytical jurisprudence, as well as overcoming the misjudgements of a purely historical and socioeconomic legal concept. In view of the constantly growing possibilities of normative communication, especially those of the law, and the multitude of state-organized legal systems, this international journal serves the jurisprudential basic research, the comparison of methods and theories, and the structure and expansion of a modern structure theory, especially the legal theory of norms and action.

Psychology, Public Policy, and Law® provides a forum to critically evaluate the contributions of psychology and related disciplines (hereinafter psychology) to public policy and legal issues, and vice versa. It is intended to appeal to law professors, legal professionals, judges, and public policy analysts, as well as psychology researchers and practitioners working at the interface of the three fields. The journal publishes theoretical and empirical articles that critically evaluate the contributions and potential contributions of psychology to public policy and legal issues; assess the desirability of different public policy and legal alternatives in light of the scientific knowledge base in psychology; articulate research needs that address public policy and legal issues for which there is currently insufficient theoretical and empirical knowledge; present empirical work that makes a significant contribution to the application of psychological knowledge to public policy or the law; and examine public policy and legal issues relating to the conduct of psychology and related disciplines (e.g., human subjects, protection policies; informed consent procedures). Although some of these issues may be addressed in articles currently being submitted to traditional law reviews, this publication uniquely provides peer review, scientific and legal input, and editorial guidance from psychologists and lawyers. Through publication in a single forum, it will also focus attention of scholarly, public policy, and legal audiences on such work.

Comparisons may be either temporal or geographical and both legal and other law-like normative traditions will be considered. Scholarship on comparative and trans-national historiography, including trans-disciplinary approaches, is particularly welcome.
