Journal of Law, Governance and Public Administration is a journal in the EJSIR Publisher programme, focused on Law, Governance and Public Administration. Its scope is organized into academic sections covering Public Law, International Law, Technology & Data Law, Corporate & Commercial Law, Environmental Law, Governance, Public Administration, Regulation & Policy, Human Rights and Comparative Law. This structure helps authors assess disciplinary fit and gives readers a clear route through the journal’s subject coverage. The journal welcomes original research article, review article, systematic review, short communication and other contributions described in its author guidance when they fit the scope. Suitable approaches include doctrinal analysis, comparative law, legal history, regulation studies, policy analysis and empirical legal research. Authors should identify primary and secondary sources, explain case or jurisdiction selection and address the limits of the legal framework or data examined. Authors should engage relevant scholarship, explain the contribution and report limitations needed for critical assessment. Editorial assessment considers journal fit, methodological or interpretive quality, research integrity and clarity. The stated review model is double-anonymous peer review, normally with at least two independent reviewers. Publisher policies on ethics, access, authorship, conflicts, data and corrections apply alongside this journal’s scope. Submission information is provided on this site; manuscripts can be submitted only after the journal’s submission route opens.
