The Columbia Law Review is a law review edited and published by students at Columbia Law School. The journal publishes scholarly articles, essays, and student notes.

It was established in 1901 by Joseph E. Corrigan and John M. Woolsey, who served as the review's first editor-in-chief and secretary.[3] The Columbia Law Review is one of four law reviews that publishes the Bluebook.

History

The Columbia Law Review represents the school's third attempt at a student-run law periodical. In 1885, the Columbia Jurist was founded by a group of six students but ceased publication in 1887.[4] Despite its short run, the Jurist is credited with partially inspiring the creation of the Harvard Law Review, which began publication a short time later.[5]

The second journal, the Columbia Law Times was founded in 1887 and closed down in 1893 due to lack of revenue.[6]

Publication of the current Columbia Law Review began in 1901,[7] making it the fifth oldest surviving law review in the US. Dean William Keener took an active involvement during its founding to help ensure its longevity.[8]

In June 2024, its editors refused to retract publication of an article that attempted to introduce "Nakba as a legal concept," after explaining that the Arabic term "al-Nakba" refers to "the ruinous process of establishing the State of Israel."[9] As a result, its Board of Directors made its website inaccessible.

Impact

The Columbia Law Review was the top-cited law journal during the 2018 Supreme Court term.[10]

According to the Journal Citation Reports the Columbia Law Review had a 2009 impact factor of 3.610, ranking it third out of 116 journals in the category "Law".[11] In 2007, the Columbia Law Review ranked second for submissions and citations within the legal academic community, after Harvard Law Review.[12]
