THE INTERNATIONAL LAWYER
The International Lawyer (ISSN 0020-7810) is the quarterly publication of the American Bar Association's Section of International Law and Practice (the Section). It has a worldwide circulation of more than 17,000.
Publication Policy: The objective of The International Lawyer is • to publish high quality articles on international subjects; • to inform its readers of significant current legal developments throughout the world; • to foster and record the activities of the Section and its committees.
The Journal focuses on practical issues facing lawyers engaged in international practice. Thus, the editors are interested primarily in topics concerning trade, licensing, direct investment, finance, taxation, and litigation and dispute resolution. They will, however, also consider public international law topics.
Article Submission: Articles submitted for publication should not exceed 10,000 words (including endnotes). Text and endnotes should be double-spaced. Endnotes must conform to A Uniform System of Citation (15th ed.) (the Harvard Bluebook). The Journal does not accept unsolicited student- written submissions. Nor does it consider articles or reports that have been or are to be published elsewhere.
Send four copies of a manuscript to the Executive Editor, The International Lawyer, Southern Methodist University School of Law, P.O. Box 750116, Dallas, TX 75275-0116, [phone: 214/ 768-4077; fax: 214/768-4330; e-mail: [email protected]]. Manuscripts receive internal and external review, which usually takes about three weeks. Publication is normally nine to twelve months after a manuscript is accepted. The editors of The International Lawyer reserve the right to move an accepted manuscript from the committed issue to a later issue.
Manuscripts are submitted at the sender's risk. The editors do not return unsolicited material. Material accepted for publication becomes the property of the Section, which pays no fee for any manuscript.
Subscription Price: Section annual membership dues of $35.00 ($15.00 for law students) include a $12.00 subscription to The International Lawyer. The annual subscription rate for nonmem- bers is $35.00 ($50.00 if mailed outside the United States).
