Founded in 1953 by Professor Robert McGechan, the Victoria University of Wellington Law Review is the oldest university Law Review in New Zealand. It has a proud history of being a major publisher of significant legal articles of relevance not only to New Zealand, or our Pacific region, but also internationally.
The University’s Law Review publishes four issues a year, a total of some 800 pages of quality research by international scholars, members of this faculty and our colleagues elsewhere in New Zealand, distinguished visitors and the Faculty’s own students.
Law Review submissions
The Victoria University of Wellington Law Review is happy to receive submissions from international and domestic authors. Academic articles are subject to an academic refereeing process.
The Law Review publishes both general issues, containing articles on diverse subjects, and special issues with particular themes.
The Law Review also publishes longer works in its monograph series, and sponsors symposia to promote scholarship on important issues.
The Law Review is, true to Professor McGechan’s original vision, run by both Faculty and students. Faculty are responsible for the overall quality of the Review and its general administration. The Editorial Committee organises and oversees the refereeing process.
The team of student editors is guided by the Student Editor-in-Chief.
The Managing Editor is responsible for overall management and production.
The Law Review have guidelines on submitting.
