Journal Articles
The Harvard Journal on Legislation considers scholarly submissions for publication through Scholastica. The Journal will not consider submissions made by mail or email. Footnotes should comply with the most recent version of the The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation.
Student Writing
We are always seeking original submissions from students, both for our print and online editions. For online content, we accept both longer pieces to be posted as Online Notes and shorter pieces to fit our Commentary section. We welcome submissions from law as well as non-law students.
We invite submissions on a wide range of topics, including law, policy, politics, and history, as long as the subject matter will be of interest to policymakers. If you would like us to consider a piece for publication or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at hlsjol@mail.law.harvard.edu.
For examples of past online content, see JOL Online.
