About the Australian Indigenous Law Review

About the Australian Indigenous Law Review

Established in 1996 as the Australian Indigenous Law Review (AILR) and renamed in 2007, the Australian Indigenous Law Review (AILREV) is a quarterly peer-reviewed publication of the Indigenous Law Centre, a research centre affiliated with the Law Faculty of the University of New South Wales. The AILREV’s primary objective is to provide access to a broad range of legal information and commentary on issues affecting Indigenous peoples in Australia and around the world. It also seeks to provide a platform for academic and political debate, and to aid in the discussion of conceptual developments in Indigenous law. The reputation of the AILREV is strengthened by its close ties with an Editorial Panel comprising a number of Australia’s foremost experts on Indigenous law.

The AILRev is unique in Australian legal publishing. It serves to bring current Australian law and commentary together with international developments affecting Indigenous peoples around the world. The importance of such material requires that it be compiled in an accessible form. The AILRev is designed to complement the Indigenous Law Centre's long-established magazine format publication, the Indigenous Law Bulletin (ILB).

The AILRev reports not only judicial decisions but covers a range of developments in the law concerning Indigenous peoples. We publish the full text or extracts of some materials and summaries of others. Where the full text is not published, we provide readers with publication details of the full text. Where original material is reproduced, editorial interventions are limited to the provision of introductory information, publication details and cross-references.

The AILRev publishes material under the following headings:

The 'Commentary' section contains one or more scholarly articles by leading commentators on an important current issue.

Guidelines for Contributors

While the AILRev is primarily an academic publication, its audience also includes Australian and international practitioners, government departments, Indigenous organisations and a range of NGOs. We publish many articles by lawyers and legal academics, but also publish work by sociologists, educators, economists, political scientists, historians and philosophers. We are always looking for new and different perspectives on issues and debates in Indigenous law, and we welcome both solicited and unsolicited contributions for commentary articles, case notes and introductory notes relating to current Australian and international legislation, policies, inquiries and reports. Contributors should read the AILRev’s policy on publication, available on the AILRev website

.

While all submissions will usually be considered, commentary articles should normally be no less than 5,000 words and no more than 15,000 words in length (including references). Case notes and introductory notes should be approximately 1000-2000 words.

Submissions should be addressed to the Editor and submitted in Word format via email to ailr@unsw.edu.au

The AILREV uses the style conventions in the Australian Guide to Legal Citation (2nd ed, 2002), available online at <<http://mulr.law.unimelb.edu.au/aglc.asp>>
