Call For Papers - Volume 12(1) of the Cambridge International Law Journal

The Cambridge International Law Journal (CILJ) is pleased to invite submissions for Volume 12(1), to be published in June 2023.

The Board welcomes articles and case notes that engage with current themes in international law, as well as book reviews on recently published works.

Volume 12(1) will include a special section on 'Global Security Challenges and International Law', in collaboration with the European Society of International Law’s Interest Group on International Economic Law.

Security threats, both persisting and emerging, are increasingly the subject of international concern: whether and how international law can effectively address these challenges is a matter of utmost importance. At the same time, the question of which issues are deemed security threats is itself open to scrutiny. The Board invites contributions on this theme, in addition to contributions to the general section.

Submissions must be received through the online Submittable platform by 11:59 pm (BST) on Sunday, 30 October 2022. The Journal accepts the following types of manuscripts:
