DUNDEE STUDENT LAW REVIEW — CALL FOR PAPERS

The Dundee Student Law Review (DSLR) is a student-run, peer-reviewed legal academic journal, which is now making a call for papers for Volume XII. Volume XII’s theme is set to focus on climate change challenges, energy solutions, and other related topics.

For both inspiration and guidance, the quote provided below captures the essence of what the DSLR aims to have students critically engage with:

“There is again concern over Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheet melt, with the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation] (AMOC) collapsing, bringing severe regional weather changes. These, however, are still projected events that can be avoided should considerable investment and development of sustainable technologies occur.” (A Guide to the New Energies, 2nd edn, Aberlour Press Ltd 2023)

The DSLR invites any member of the WS, either full member, affiliate or student, to submit work that discusses any desired area or aspect of law within the above-noted theme for the new issue. 

  • Please include your full name and the aspect or area of law the submission discusses

  • Submissions that offer a critical or original perspective to the given theme will be prioritised

  • Please omit your name from the article itself as all submissions will be edited/reviewed anonymously to ensure fair practice

  • Submissions should be no longer than 10,000 words

  • Please refer to OSCOLA for citing sources

The deadline for submissions for Volume XII is 25th May 2026. Submissions should be emailed as attachments to: law-studentreview@dundee.ac.uk:
