Scholarly Journals
The Oxford Law Faculty presides over four important, but very different, scholarly journals:
Oxford Journal of Legal Studies is a peer-reviewed general law journal of major international importance, edited by members of the Law Faculty on behalf of the Faculty.
The Oxford University Commonwealth Law Journal is a more recently established peer-reviewed journal edited by current Oxford graduate students on behalf of the Faculty.
The Oxford University Comparative Law Forum is a peer-reviewed electronic journal based at our Institute of European and Comparative Law. It includes online discussions of its articles.
The University of Oxford Legal Research Paper Series include the established electronic journal of faculty research hosted on the SSRN's Legal Scholarship Network and the new Oxford Student Legal Studies Research Paper Series
