Where can I submit an article I wrote on criminal law and corruption, money laundering?
I wrote two articles and would like to have them published in a review or a journal, preferably American (most of them are published by universities). Which journals/reviews, how can I contact them? I would like to send them my articles by email. Thanks!
Answers:
Almost every law school has a law journal, and almost every one of them can be reached through that law school's web site.
It depends on the length and nature of the article.
For example, a 50-page study of the evolution of financial crime, tracing it from its origins and providing comparative treatments of how the regime has evolved and its current incarnations might find a market in a law school law review or specialty journal if you hold an advanced degree or are otherwise distinguished, though I would venture to say that it would be a very hard sell.
Law reviews are highly distinguished publications that are unlikely to accept submissions from persons who do not, in addition to a doctoral degree or two, hold some special dinctinction, such as a professorship, a judicial post, or who are absolutely pre-eminent in the field.
Less daunting are the section publications of the American Bar Association. There is a section on financial crime, and they might have an interest in the subject. It would need to be an extremely scholarly work to have a chance of even being read and taken seriously.
Then there are private journals, such as the Practical Lawyer, and journals such as the New York Law Journal. NYLJ accepts submissions from partners and counsels in law firms that address timely topics, with a size limit of 2500 words.
