Submissions are invited for 1st NUALS-CPSLR-CSR Article Writing Competition. The last date of submission is March 5.
The NUALS Constitutional Studies Review was founded in 2019 under the aegis of the Centre for Parliamentary Studies and Law Reforms, NUALS. It is a student-edited, double-blind, peer-reviewed law journal dedicated to publishing scholarship on constitutional law, comparative constitutional law, jurisprudence and the history and politics pertaining to constitutional law.
The Journal was started with the idea of creating a specialized forum to initiate academic discussions on the study and review of the constitutional and statutory developments in India and around the world, through the broad contours of history, philosophy, politics, and law.
Our goal is to create a space for legal scholarship in constitutional studies that is accessible to everyone, to promote original scholarship, and to spark conversations among the various stakeholders in the field.
The Centre for Parliamentary Studies and Law Reforms (CPSLR) under the National University of Advanced Legal Studies is an endeavour of the University to make legislation more effective for social transformation and to achieve social justice by equitable administration of law.
The CPSLR adopts an inter-disciplinary approach to identify the inadequacies in legislation to suggest changes and to support the enactment of new laws to meet emerging challenges.
As part of its efforts to familiarise the students of law with the fine nuances of various legislations, the Centre conducts periodic special lectures, seminars, workshops, conclaves, essay competitions, etc., and has come out with publications in the nature of books, blogs, and a newsletter.
The First NUALS-CPSLR-CSR Article Writing Competition is being conducted in an attempt to further the discourse on recent events relating to constitutional and statutory law in India and around the world, providing a platform for law students to express their thoughts and perspectives relating to the same.
Submitted entries will be evaluated on the basis of several factors, including but not limited to research, novelty, clarity, and the ability to convey legal concepts & ideas succinctly yet effectively.
The following themes are to be taken as broad areas to draw inspiration from:
