About the journal
The Harvard Law Review is a student-run organization whose primary purpose is to publish a journal of legal scholarship. The Review comes out monthly from November through June and has roughly 2,000 pages per volume. The organization is formally independent of the Harvard Law School. Student editors make all editorial and organizational decisions and, together with a professional business staff of three, carry out day-to-day operations. A circulation of about 8,000 enables the Review to pay all of its own expenses.
Aside from serving as an important academic forum for legal scholarship, the Review has two other goals. First, the journal is designed to be an effective research tool for practicing lawyers and students of the law. Second, it provides opportunities for Review members to develop their own editing and writing skills. Accordingly, each issue contains pieces by student editors as well as outside authors.
The Review publishes articles by professors, judges, and practitioners and solicits reviews of important recent books from recognized experts. All articles¡ªeven those by the most respected authorities¡ªare subjected to a rigorous editorial process designed to sharpen and strengthen substance and tone.
Most student writing takes the form of Notes, Recent Cases, Recent Legislation, and Book Notes. Notes are approximately 18 pages and are usually written by third-year students. Recent Cases and Recent Legislation are normally six pages long and are written mainly by second-year students. Recent Cases are comments on recent decisions by courts other than the U.S. Supreme Court, such as state supreme courts, federal circuit courts, district courts, and foreign courts. Recent Legislation look at new statutes or administrative rules at either the state or federal level. Book Notes, also written by second-years, are six-page reviews of recently published books.
Student-written pieces also appear in the special November and February issues. The November issue contains the Supreme Court Foreword, usually by a prominent constitutional scholar, the faculty Case Comment, and about 25 Leading Cases¡ªanalyses by third-year students of the most important decisions of the previous Supreme Court Term¡ªand a compilation of Court statistics. The February issue features the annual Developments in the Law project, an in-depth treatment of an important area of the law prepared principally by second-year editors of the Review. All student writing is unsigned. This policy reflects the fact that many members of the Review, besides the author, make a contribution to each published piece.

Instructions to Authors
How to Submit
The Harvard Law Review requests that contributors comply with the following standards:
-
Electronic Submission: We strongly encourage contributors to submit their manuscripts through our new electronic submission system, preferably in Microsoft Word format. Articles may be submitted to the Havard Law Review exclusively or through the standard submission protocol. Alternatively, you may still submit a hard copy if you wish; please address all manuscripts to: Articles Office, Harvard Law Review, Gannett House, 1511 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, MA 02138. Please note that we will not accept articles submitted via email.
- Length Limitations: In an effort to address the growing length of law review articles, the Harvard Law Review has adopted a new policy limiting the length of articles we will accept or publish.
The Review will give preference to articles under 25,000 words in length -- the equivalent of 50 law review pages -- including text and footnotes. The Review will not publish articles exceeding 35,000 words -- the equivalent of 70-75 law review pages -- except in extraordinary circumstances.
In December 2004, the Harvard Law Review surveyed nearly 800 law professors on the state of student-edited law journals. The results of the survey, which found that nearly ninety percent of respondents believe that law review articles are too long, are available here.
For further background regarding this policy, please see a Joint Statement issued by a number of law journals across the country.
- Anonymous Review: To facilitate our anonymous review process, please confine your name, affiliation, biographical information, and acknowledgments to a separate cover page. Please include the manuscript's title on the first text page.
-
Citation Format: Please use footnotes rather than endnotes. Footnotes should conform to the 18th edition of The Bluebook.
-
Expedited Review: If you would like to request an expedited review of your submission and if you have submitted a manuscript, please make the request through our electronic expedited review system. You may also contact us by phone or fax and leave a message.
