Geschiedenis

The Tilburg Law Review serves as a forum for leading, peer-reviewed scholarship debating on issues of international and European law.
The Tilburg Law Review is the successor to the Tilburg Foreign Law Review, founded in 1991. Newly refocused and re-designed, the Tilburg Law Review seeks to be an important forum for the Euro-Atlantic debate on legal issues transcending boundaries and legal orders, and impacting society at large.



Mission

The Tilburg Law Review: Journal of International and European Law is a peer-reviewed journal. It seeks to provide an international academic forum for debate on developments in international and in European law, and the legal issues arising at the intersection of these two fields. The Tilburg Law Review seeks to encourage a scholarly dialogue among researchers, academics and practitioners. The journal is embedded within Tilburg Law School, consistently the top-ranked Dutch law school for research, located in Tilburg, the Netherlands.


History

Founded in 1991, the Tilburg Law Review was one of the first student-run law journals in Europe and is still run by graduate students at the Tilburg Law School. Upon its 20th anniversary, the journal is read on both sides of the Atlantic, and has the ambition of expanding its readership to reflect the breadth of the topics discussed in the scholarship it publishes. The journal benefits from the large international network and dynamic research environment of Tilburg Law School.


Scope

The Tilburg Law Review promotes the legal analysis of current societal problems arising at the European and at the international level, and aims to contribute to the search for socially sustainable solutions. The scope of the journal is purposefully broad in order to capture the latest developments in a wide range of issues at the intersection of international and European law as they arise. In order to make cutting edge research available to its readers, the TLR occasionally makes itself available as a platform for debate on an original or pressing issue.

Selection Process

The Tilburg Law Review encourages submissions of articles regarding legal issues within the scope of the journal. Submissions undergo a rigorous selection process, including two rounds of Editorial Board review and a blind peer review. Editing is performed by graduate student editors, trained in the critical assessment of legal writing and legal methodology.
