Duke Law Journal is a leading legal periodical published continuously since 1957 by the Duke University School of Law in Durham, North Carolina. It carries the ISSN 0012-7086 and is classified under K4 .U63 in the Library of Congress system.
The journal traces its origins back to 1951, when it first appeared as the Duke Bar Journal. Initially made up entirely of student-written and student-edited contributions, it began publishing faculty scholarship in 1953. To reflect this broader scope, the title was changed to Duke Law Journal in 1957. Since 1969 it has also featured an annual Administrative Law Symposium, which continues to this day.
Over the decades, the journal has grown steadily in size and influence. From two issues and 259 pages in its earliest incarnation, it now publishes eight issues per year and is recognised as one of the top law reviews in the United States.
The Duke Law Journal provides a platform for a wide range of legal writing, from established scholars and emerging voices to its own student editors. It is regarded as an important forum for the discussion of corporate law, administrative law, and broader legal scholarship.
As an academic resource, it serves both as a training ground for law students — who develop essential editorial, analytical and writing skills — and as a venue for high-quality legal research that contributes significantly to contemporary legal debates. The online edition is available to institutions and individual subscribers.
