Call for submissions for Kent Student Law Review

A call for submissions for Kent Student Law Review’s Autumn 2018 volume closes at 2pm on Friday 26 January 2018.

Kent Student Law Review (KSLR) is a student-led publication offering both undergraduate and postgraduate law students at Kent a unique opportunity to have their very best work published. Each volume showcases informed critical legal scholarship that reflects the best representation of law in society.

This year’s Editorial Board is seeking submissions of between 3,000 and 10,000 words. Shorter submissions of high quality will also be considered as will case comments and book reviews (but these should not exceed 3,000 words).

Submissions can be on any topic and can include articles based on essays and dissertations originally submitted for assessment. In such cases, the submission’s original grade should be no lower than 65%. Even where articles satisfy such minimum requirements, revisions may be required at the discretion of the KSLR Editorial Board. ​

All submissions will be subject to a double-blind review process where neither the author nor the reviewer’s identities will be known to one another. Final decisions regarding the publication of submissions will be made by the KSLR Editorial Board and will ultimately be based upon quality of research and writing, diversity, and fit with the journal’s focus and philosophy.

Submissions must follow KSLR house style and be uploaded in Microsoft Word format.

This year’s volume will be the fourth with all previous volumes available to read on the KSLR website.
