    The SJLC

    The Sunderland Journal of Law and Criminology provides students with an opportunity to present their work to faculty members and peers, and aims to invigorate both undergraduate and postgraduate law and criminology students’ active participation in the community of socio-legal research. The Journal unites students and staff by helping students to engage in the publishing process with support and guidance from experienced members of academia.

    The peer-reviewed, open-access journal, is devoted to socio-legal research and is a platform to publish notes, case comments and papers. The journal is also interested in any proposals to draft and/or amend the existing laws. Our law and criminology students are invited to submit papers, articles and case comments engaging with any area of law and criminology.
