About
International Journal of Criminal Jurisprudence and Criminal Justice System (ISSN: 2504-7078), a student-run, peer reviewed journal invites articles, research papers, case comments, book reviews and commentaries for its inaugural issue.
The journal seeks to encourage rigorous inter-disciplinary research on diverse aspects of criminal law and aims to investigate criminal law and policy from social sciences and humanities perspectives.
The journal hopes to simultaneously work at two different levels– the conceptual and the empirical– usually seen as mutually exclusive. The review will offer thorough analyses on critical aspects of criminal law and will attempt to keep the readers abreast with contemporary developments in the field.
