Law and Literature, published tri-annually and edited by faculty of the Cardozo School of Law and a board of international scholars, is one of only two journals in the country entirely focused on the interdisciplinary movement known as Law and Literature. The movement, which extols law-related literature and the literary value of legal documents, provides a unique perspective on how law and literature are mutually enlightening. Issues in private law and public law, restrictions on creative expression, gender and racial bias, hermeneutics (interpretive methodologies), and legal themes in works of literature are among the journal's regular topics.

International and interdisciplinary in scope, Law & Policy embraces varied research methodologies that interrogate law, governance, and public policy worldwide.

Broadly interdisciplinary, The Review welcomes work from any tradition of scholarship concerned with the cultural, economic, political, psychological, or social aspects of law and legal systems.

Law and Critique is the prime international critical legal theory journal. It has been published for 20 years and is associated with the Critical Legal Conference.

Law and Critique has introduced into legal scholarship a variety of schools of thought, such as postmodernism: feminism: queer theory: critical race theory: literary approaches to law: psychoanalysis: law and the humanities: law and aesthetics and post-colonialism. Postmodern jurisprudence, law and aesthetics and law and psychoanalysis were pioneered in Law and Critique which remains the most authoritative international source for these schools of thought.

More specifically, Law and Critique encourages the submission of articles in the areas of critical legal theory and history, law and literature, law and psychoanalysis, feminist legal theory, critical race theory, law and post-colonialism: postmodern jurisprudence, law and aesthetics: legal phenomenology: and law and autopoiesis. Past special issues include: 'Critical Legal Education': 'The Gender of Law': 'Law and Postmodernism': 'Law and Literature': 'Law and Post-colonialism', 'Law and Theatre': 'Jean-Luc Nancy and Law': 'Agamben and Law'.
