About The Journal

The Harvard Law & Policy Review (HLPR) is published twice annually and serves as the official journal of the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy. The American Constitution Society provides financial support for the publication of the review. The review invites innovative approaches to policy challenges by providing a credible and prominent forum for substantive debate between progressive legal scholars, policymakers, and practitioners. HLPR is a nexus between the worlds of academia and practice, with a focus on promoting scholarship with practical application to societal challenges.

The American Constitution Society (ACS) takes no position on particular legal or policy initiatives. All expressions of opinion in the Harvard Law & Policy Review (HLPR) are those of the author or authors and do not reflect the views of HLPR, Harvard Law School, or ACS.

HLPR is a student-run journal at Harvard Law School.

The Harvard Law & Policy Review welcomes articles and essays from professors, judges, practitioners, policymakers, and students. Unsolicited manuscripts should be typed and double-spaced in Microsoft Word format, and citations should conform to The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (18th ed. 2005). Submissions should range in length from 5,000 to 10,000 words, with footnotes. Student and/or online content submissions should be less than 3,500 words.

All manuscripts submitted become the property of HLPR and will not be returned to the author. In addition to the manuscript, authors must include an accurate abstract of not more than 250 words, as well as a cover letter and resume or curriculum vitae. Authors must also ensure that their submissions include a direct email address and phone number at which they can be reached throughout the review period.

Authors should note that the readership for HLPR includes approximately 6,000 members of the American Constitution Society (ACS) receiving the journal as part of their membership in ACS. HLPR provides a forum for progressive solutions to pressing legal and policy problems. Accordingly, HLPR welcomes essays directed at an audience beyond academia.

Selection Process

The HLPR editorial staff decides upon submitted manuscripts. Upon selection, we will contact the author with a contract and further information on the publication process. The HLPR editorial process is rigorous, and authors should expect to work closely with editorial staff.
