About the Journal

Condensing essential information into just three issues a year, the Journal of Environmental Law has become an authoritative source of informed analysis for all those who have any dealings in this vital field of legal study. The Journal exists primarily for academics and legal practitioners, but should also prove accessible for all other groups concerned with the environment, from scientists to planners.

The journal offers major articles on a wide variety of topics, refereed and written to the highest standards, providing innovative and authoritative appraisals of current and emerging concepts, policies and practice. It includes an Analysis section, providing detailed analysis of current case law and legislative and policy developments, and an annual review of significant UK, European Court of Justice and international law cases. The journal also contains a substantial book reviews section.
