RGNUL Call for abstracts

About the Theme

In light of the growing need, broad application, and receptive nature of comparative legal study, RSRR seeks to delve into the theme ‘Comparative Law in a Changing World’ to comprehensively review and foster discourse that analyses laws in their cultural context but also in their application to a wider world outside the limits of boundaries. The primary objective of this theme is to establish a platform for rigorous legal analysis, insightful commentary, and in-depth examination, which can effectively offer solutions and thoughts on how different jurisdictions complement and contradict each other, and what the legal scholar can gain from their invisible debate.

As a discipline, comparative law is benevolent: adaptable, receptive, and open. It allows for analysis of legal nuances by comparing not just other current jurisdictions. Thus, we invite scholarship that incorporates elements from history, sociology, philosophy, and other interdisciplinary perspectives. We further invite arguments for diverse approaches to comparative law, including those against its use in interpreting and implementing law.

Submission Categories

RSRR invites abstracts under the following categories:

  • Articles (5,000 words onwards) undertake a comprehensive and thorough analysis of issues related to the theme of the Journal.

  • Case Comments (2,000 words onwards) analyse or critique a recent case law.

  • Legislative Comments (2,000 words onwards) analyse or critique an ideated, proposed, drafted, or enacted piece of legislation, including its impact and normative value.

All abstracts must be from 200 to 500 words, and submitted in [doc] or [docx] format, with the file entitled ‘Name of Author(s) — RSRR Abstract Submission’. Abstracts must be submitted via this form.
