Since its foundation in 1988, the Harvard Human Rights Journal (“HHRJ” or “the Journal”) has provided a forum for a diverse array of human rights scholarship authored by legal scholars, practitioners, and law students. HHRJ serves as a leading publication focused on human rights law and policy, publishing content in print and online. The Journal aspires to publish content that transforms the scholarship of human rights law, in both international and domestic contexts, exploring novel arguments and issues that both advance the universal promise of human rights while maintaining a critical eye.
