The UCLA Law Review is now accepting submissions for Discourse Volume 73.
Discourse publishes shorter articles, response pieces to articles previously published in the UCLA Law Review and Discourse, book reviews, interdisciplinary work, and empirical studies. Submissions to Discourse are considered on a rolling basis and, if accepted, have an expedited production schedule. Like our print journal, Discourse articles are published on Westlaw, Lexis, and in other legal databases. Ideal submissions are between 3,000 and 5,000 words. Submissions over 10,000 words are not reviewed.
Discourse especially seeks to publish work from historically marginalized communities that is accessible to non-lawyers and individuals impacted by legal systems. Discourse invites essays, reflections, public remarks, and any non-traditional submissions, including submissions in languages other than English. Discourse strongly encourages authors to use person-first language in submissions.
For Non-Traditional Works: Send the manuscript and your CV to lrdiscourse@lawnet.ucla.edu. Please follow the same additional submission guidelines as for traditional academic works.
