Yale Law Journal
Encyclopedia : Y : YA : YAL : Yale Law Journal
The Yale Law Journal, published continuously since 1891, is the oldest and most widely known of the eight law reviews published by students at Yale Law School.
The Journal, which is published eight times per year, contains articles, essays, and book reviews by professional legal scholars as well as student-written notes and comments. It is edited entirely by students. The Journal also publishes an online companion, [The Pocket Part], which features op-ed length versions of Journal articles and responses from leading practitioners, policymakers, and scholars, and also serves as a forum for the Journal's readers and authors to discuss legal scholarship.
Past editors of the Journal include prominent law professors (Akhil Amar, Ian Ayres, Stephen L. Carter, John Hart Ely, Randall Kennedy, Martha Minow), political figures (journalist Michael Barone, former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich, Senator Arlen Specter), Supreme Court justices (Abe Fortas, Samuel Alito), and judges (Guido Calabresi, Robert Katzmann, Sonia Sotomayor).
