It is published by students of the University of Göttingen in cooperation with the Institute of International and European Law in Göttingen.
All issues are available to be read free of charge in open access standard on the website of GoJIL. The journal is published semi-annually and completely in English in order to reach a wide readership. Contributions of professors, scientific assistants and excellent students are accepted.
The Goettingen Journal of International Law orients itself on the model of American law reviews. Advanced students conduct all editorial procedures. Contributions are chosen through a peer review process. It is carried out by the Scientific Advisory Board which comprises advanced PhD candidates and postdoctoral candidates and thus guarantees the highest degree of scholarly standards. The Advisory Board composed of professors and practitioners (Thomas Buergenthal (ICJ), Angelika Nussberger (ECtHR) Bruno Simma (ICJ), Georg Nolte, Peter-Tobias Stoll, Kai Ambos, Christian Calliess, Andreas Paulus (BVerfG), Walter Reese-Schäfer, Frank Schorkopf) guarantees a high scientific standard and supports the student-editors.
