The best submissions from all three issues in 2022-23 (Summer 2022, Winter 2022, Spring 2023) will stand to win cash prizes. This year we are offering a £750 cash prize for best submission sponsored by 3 Verulam Buildings, £500 for second best submission sponsored by Serle Court, and prizes worth £200 for Outstanding Submissions sponsored by One Essex Court, 6KBW College Hill, and The Constitution Society. Furthermore, all successful submissions will be published on the LSE Law Review website, HeinOnline and vLex Justis, and will also be indexed on Thomson Reuters WestLaw.
The preliminary deadline is the 21st of November (23:59 GMT) and all submissions received prior to this deadline will receive revisions and feedback. The final deadline is the 5th of December (23:59 GMT).
Submissions should be made electronically through their website under “start a submission”. Writings can be in the form of an article (4,000-20,000 words); case note (1,000-4,000 words); or a letter to the editor addressing current legal developments or drawing attention to a legal issue that the author considers important (up to 2000 words). All word limits exclude footnotes. Submissions should be on an area within UK, EU, and/or International Law. Submissions on Foreign Law may be accepted where there is a strong comparative analysis with UK, EU, and/or International Law.
