Columbia Human Rights Law Review

Academic journal From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Columbia Human Rights Law Review is a law review established in 1967 focusing on human rights issues. Named the Columbia Survey of Human Rights Law for its first three volumes, the journal is produced and edited by students of Columbia Law School and is "dedicated to the analysis and discussion of human rights, civil rights, and civil liberties under both domestic and international law."[1] In 2016, the journal launched HRLR Online (now HRLR Forum), an online publication featuring shorter, cutting-edge pieces focusing on human rights.[2]
