Journal of Legislation is a scholarly journal published by Notre Dame Law School.
The Journal of Legislation (Bluebook abbreviation J. Legis.) is a legislative law review which focuses on analysis and reform of legislation and public policy.[1] The Journal was founded in 1971 as New Dimensions in Legislation,[2] before being renamed as N.D. Journal of Legislation[3] in 1974 and finally just Journal of Legislation in 1976.[4]
The Journal typically publishes two issues every year, with each issue usually comprising two to three articles from independent contributors on legislation or policy, and three to four staff-written notes. Occasionally, the Journal will also publish briefer commentaries on legislative articles that have appeared in previous or concurrent issues. The Journal is financially self-sufficient, independently organized and completely student-run.[5]
