Submission Details:

International Journal of Contemporary Laws aims to serve the law through the views and opinions of the author/s. Hence we request you to submit your manuscripts for Vol. 1(1) in compliance with the submission guidelines. Papers may be submitted under the following categories:-

Articles - The word limit for this section is 8,000-10,000 inclusive of footnotes. Papers in this category are expected to engage with the theme comprehensively, examine literature comprehensively, and offer an innovative reassessment of the current understanding of that theme. Short Articles - The word limit for this section is 5,000-8,000 inclusive of footnotes. Short Articles are far more concise in scope. These papers usually deal with a very specific contemporary issue, and argue that the issue must be conceptualized differently. They are more engaging, and make a more easily identifiable, concrete argument. Legislative and Case Comments - The word limit for this section is 3,000-6,000 inclusive of footnotes. This is an analysis of any contemporary judicial pronouncement, whether in India or elsewhere. It must identify and examine the line of cases in which the decision in question came about, and comment on implications for the evolution of that branch of law.

Submissions are preferred in Times New Roman font, double-spaced. Main text should be in font size 12 and footnotes in font size 10. All submissions must be word processed, and compatible with Microsoft Word 2003 and 2007. The submissions shall reach us on or before 15 December, 2011 at submissions@ijcl.co.in and editor.ijcl@gmail.com. Submissions received after this date may be considered for the next issue.
