Submitting Book Reviews

The EJIL regularly publishes three types of book reviews:

• review essays, which analyse the text in the context of the greater field of law addressed by the author;
• short reviews, which address the content, purpose and quality of an individual text;
• brief capsules and notes, which briefly describe and evaluate the text.

The EJIL book reviews section is integrally connected with International Law Book Reviews Online (www.globallawbooks.org) and European Law Book Reviews Online (www.europeanlawbooks.org). These sites provide permanent coverage of the literature on public international law, European Union law and questions of global governance, through the online presentation of book reviews.

All book reviews that we solicit and receive will, upon approval by the editors, be published on one of these two sites. Depending on considerations of space and diversity, they will also be published in the EJIL. We believe that online publication, due to wide readership and the possibility for interaction between reviewers, readers and authors, is as valuable as publication of book reviews in print journals.

We rely on the help of our reviewers to extend our coverage of the literature (particularly regarding non-English language books). The EJIL as well as the two websites will post a list of books received from publishers and other sources. Qualified individuals are invited to send short review and review essay proposals for books on this list. Each selected reviewer will receive a complimentary copy of the text to be reviewed. We will carefully consider any proposals for specific book reviews or suggestions of books you feel should be reviewed, and we will also consider for review books sent to us.

Please send book review contributions and proposals directly to the Book Review Editor, Isabel Feichtner at law.bookreviews@nyu.edu.

Review copies should be sent to:
