APLR will consider full length articles (generally within 8,000 words inclusive of footnotes, and shorter articles (less than 5,000 words inclusive of footnotes).
Full length articles deal comprehensively with a legal issue which has regional importance, while shorter articles are likely to deal with a recent legal development. While we encourage our authors to adopt a comparative approach, occasionally we publish articles dealing with a single jurisdiction. We welcome articles dealing with legal developments outside our region, if they are of immediate relevance to our readers.
We carry book reviews (within 1000 words) and review articles (within 2500 words). Review articles enable reviewers to share their own thoughts with our readers. If you wish to write a book review, we can arrange a free copy to be sent to you. Please contact Associate Professor Lin Feng at lwlin@cityu.edu.hk.
Submission of an article for publication consideration implies commitment to publish in the journal.
When submitting an article for publication consideration authors must certify that it is an unpublished article (that is, it has not been previously published in substantially similar form or with substantially similar content) and that it is not under consideration by any other journal.
Authors must assign copyright in any article accepted for publication in APLR to the publishers. Publishers of APLR may grant permission for republication of an article with an express acknowledgment that it was first published in APLR.
You may submit your article by any of email attachment to Professor Anton Cooray, editor in chief, at lwcooray@cityu.edu.hk.
