Arab Journal of
International Law
(Final
paper) Submission deadline is November 30th - 2020
Background
ARJIL’s field of interest extends to all disciplines of Public International Law, but also to its sociological (Sociology of International Law) and philosophical (Philosophy of International Law) foundations.
Thus, the journal will focus on a variety of themes related to the economic sphere (International Economic Law and International Investment Law), the growth sphere (International Development Law), the ecological figure (International Environmental Law), the scope of human rights (International Human Rights Law) and the humanitarian area (International Humanitarian Law).
A special place will be given to critical questions linked to climate change, migratory flows and epidemics, which require a significant scientific and intellectual commitment on the part of researchers in International Law and more broadly in social sciences.
One of the major motivations behind the launching of this initiative is the insufficiency of studies linked to International Law and the various problems and tensions which shape the Arab World. ARJIL comes in handy to fill in this gap.
The geographical and institutional framework of ARJIL is the Arab World. However, we remain open to international variables and their various theoretical implications, as well as to the transformations underway on the international scene and the regional constructions of International Law (Case of the European Union).
The Journal is Published both in print and online versions. Arab

Abstract
A concise and factual abstract is required (maximum length of 150
words). The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, the
principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented
separate from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. References should
therefore be avoided, but if essential, they must be cited in full, without
reference to the reference list.
5.
Keywords
Immediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of 5 keywords,
avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example,
'and', 'of').

Subsections should be numbered 1, 2. (then 1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2), 1.2, etc. The

Review Process
Arjil will not accept or publish manuscripts in

The editor evaluates the recommendation and
notifies the author of the manuscript status. The manuscript may be:

The comments of the anonymous reviewers will be
forwarded to the authors, and when the authors are ready to submit their revised
manuscripts, they read the comments of the editors and reviewers, and respond
to them by telling what modifications they have made in their manuscript or why
they have not made the suggested changes.
Material which has been previously copyrighted,
published, or accepted for publication will not be considered for publication
in the journals.
The review process will ensure that all authors
have equal opportunity for publication of their papers. Acceptance and
scheduling of publication of papers in these periodicals will not be impeded by
added criteria and procedures beyond those contained in the review process.
The editorial board is
highly committed to the quick review process of the paper, but not with the
sacrifice of the right judgement of a paper. The review process takes
