Four New Journals
1. International Data Privacy Law
Full Text: Vols. 1-9 (2011-2019)
Indexed: Vols. 1-13#3 (2011-2023)
International Data Privacy Law (IDPL) is a peer-reviewed journal that combines analytical excellence with a focus on issues of practical relevance. The journal is global in scope, and thus seeks to cover data protection and privacy law topics from around the world. It is published four times a year. Articles will have a focus on points of law, but may also, where appropriate, include discussion of the economic implications of the law, of policy and regulatory matters, and of the technical architecture of privacy.
2. Journal of International Dispute Settlement
Full Text: Vols. 1-10 (2010-2019)
Indexed: Vols. 1-14#2 (2010-2023)
JIDS addresses procedural issues that arise in international dispute resolution procedures, such as provisional measures; the consensual character of jurisdiction; evidence; amicus curiae interventions; res judicata, lis pendens and double fora; the procedural influence of human rights; experts and witnesses; interpretation, revision and challenge of awards and decisions; recognition and enforcement, etc. Comparative approaches, which are attentive to the different ways that these issues are dealt with in different types of dispute resolution procedures, are of particular interest.
The journal includes substantive aspects pertaining to those fields of the law that are shaped by international courts and tribunals, be they of an interstate, private, or mixed character. Hence, substantive issues in international economic law and international investment law are considered, so long as the link to international dispute settlement is clearly established. This includes questions of substantive law properly speaking, but also more general aspects of the substantive evolution of international law, covering issues such as the proliferation of international dispute settlement mechanisms and the ensuing fragmentation of international law.
3. Journal of World Energy Law & Business
Full Text: Vols. 1-12 (2008-2019)
Indexed: Vols. 1-16 (2008-2023)

It provides high-quality articles that combine academic excellence with professional relevance and will benefit from the expertise of a board of internationally respected academics, lawyers, and other energy professionals.
The journal publishes articles on legal, business, and policy issues in the international energy industry. This includes upstream oil and gas transactions, finance, taxation, regulation, dispute management, alternative energy resources, energy policy and security, and international energy organizations. The journal is of interest to legal practitioners; government and international agency officials; experts from professional, industry and non-governmental associations; and academics specializing in energy-related issues.
4. Political Science Quarterly
Full Text: Vols. 118-134 (2003-2020)
Indexed: Vols. 118-138#3 (2003-2023)
**Expanded coverage forthcoming.
Political Science Quarterly was launched in 1886 by Columbia University Professor John W. Burgess, the Academy’s first president, with the active involvement of New York publisher George A. Plimpton. Published continuously since that year, PSQ has been the most widely read and accessible scholarly journal on government, politics, and public policy.
Broad in its subject matter and dedicated to objective analysis based on evidence, PSQ examines both domestic and international issues. It has no ideological or methodological slant and is edited to be accessible not only to scholars but also to general readers who have a serious interest in public and foreign affairs.
Journals with Expanded Coverage
1. American Journal of Legal History
Full Text: Vols. 1-59 (1957-2019)

The new AJLH aims to publish outstanding scholarship on all facets and periods of legal history. While retaining its focus on American legal history, it accommodates the enormous broadening of the intellectual horizon of the discipline over the past decade and is particularly interested in contributions of a comparative, international, or transnational nature. Book reviews are a regular feature.
