The Grove City College Journal of Law & Public Policy invites submissions of unsolicited manuscripts concerned with the history, practice, theory, or effects of law and policy.
The editors strongly prefer articles under 15,000 words in length, the equivalent of 50 Journal pages, including text and footnotes. The Journal will not publish articles exceeding 20,000 words, the equivalent of 60 Journal pages, except in extraordinary circumstances.
To facilitate our anonymous review process, please confine your name, affiliation, biographical information, and acknowledgements to a separate cover page. Please include the manuscript’s title on the first text page, though this title will also be subject to recommended edits during the peer review process.
Submissions must be typed double-spaced and in Times New Roman 12pt font.
All citations and formatting should conform to the 21st edition of The Bluebook.
Selection takes place on a per-volume basis; thus, a piece is selected for a particular volume, but not necessarily a particular edition. Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis, beginning in August and concluding when the volume is filled, typically around mid-March.
