About the German Law Journal
The German Law Journal is a pioneering open-access forum for the publication of scholarship and commentary on transnational law, spanning comparative, European, and international law. It has been online and freely-available for readers and authors alike since 1999, long before the term »open access« was coined. Founded as a transatlantic newsletter on developments in German law, the Journal has secured a place among the world’s leading law reviews disseminating scholarship across borders. The Journal combines high-quality theoretical research with reports on current developments and thematic special issues. Pursuing this agenda, the Journal has gained a reputation for innovative publishing – linking cutting-edge, border-crossing scholarship with open access and speed to publication.
