About the Journal

The Delhi Journal for Law and Justice (DJLJ) is the student-run journal of Law Centre-II, Faculty of Law, University of Delhi. It is a double blind peer-reviewed academic journal focused on publishing original and high quality research in the field of law and justice. Originally established as a semi-annual publication in 2024, with 2024 Vol. I Issue I and 2024 Vol. I Issue II (ISSN unassigned), under the title Journal for Law and Justice, the Journal adopted an annual publication frequency from 2025 onwards, beginning with 2025 Vol. I Issue I (ISSN unassigned). Further, to avoid any potential conflict or dispute concerning the title during the process of obtaining an ISSN, the Journal revised its title accordingly. The journal encourages discussion on important legal issues and promotes critical engagement with legal theories and practices. It adds to the ongoing discussion about justice, governance, rights, and duties in India and beyond. The Aims and Scope of DJLJ are:

A.  To publish original and peer-reviewed work in law that addresses current legal and policy challenges in India and other countries.

B.  To support interdisciplinary research that brings in insights from Political Science, Economics, Sociology, History, and other relevant fields that enhance the understanding of law and justice.

C.  To provide a platform for both new and established scholars, practitioners, and academics to engage in informed and critical discussions that generate new legal knowledge.

D.  To encourage contributions that connect legal theory with practice by combining empirical research, case studies, and policy analysis.

E.  To seek a global audience and build an academic community that fosters innovative legal thought focused on justice, fairness, and ethical considerations.

F.  To maintain high standards of peer review and editorial integrity while ensuring a transparent and efficient publication process.
