The German Law Journal is a peer-reviewed, online-only open access law journal reporting on the developments in German, European and international jurisprudence.[1] It is published by Washington & Lee University School of Law.
Publication of the journal started in 2000. The journal was co-founded by its editor-in-chief, Russell A. Miller and Peer C. Zumbansen. The journal is published bi-monthly.
On its 10th anniversary, the journal was honored by the German Minister of Justice, Brigitte Zypries, for being an "ambassador of German law".[2]
In addition to its regular monthly publications, from time to time the journal publishes special issues devoted to a particular developing topic in German, European, or international jurisprudence.[3] For example, in the past, the journal published special issues on "The Transnationalization of Legal Education", "The Transnationalization of Legal Cultures", and "Legal Positivism", among others.[3]
