New England Law Opportunities
Journals and Law Review
New England Law | Boston sponsors three scholarly publications that are entirely student-run.
- The New England Law Review was recently ranked among the top 100 student-edited law reviews in the country. The Law Review also sponsors an annual symposium on topics ranging from the effect of crime scene television on the justice system to drawing the line between stem cell research and human cloning.
- The New England Journal on Criminal and Civil Confinement is recognized as one of the nation’s top criminal law publications and is the only journal in the country that specifically addresses civil confinement law.
- The New England Journal of International and Comparative Law grapples with provocative issues and trends in international law, such as the role of the non-state actor in modern warfare, complicity in international law, and the legacy of international criminal tribunals.
Staff members for each publication are selected through a writing competition and on the basis of general academic performance. In addition to management and production responsibilities, staff members edit manuscripts submitted for publication by professional and student authors, write commentaries on various areas of the law, and organize the annual symposia.
