About Us
Claudius Scholar is designed with active input from law professors, legal practitioners, judges, and law student members of law reviews.
It simplifies authors’ and editors’ lives while ensuring that, as in other fields, good scholarship finds the appropriate forum for its dissemination, and good forums find the appropriate scholarship for their pages.
