Call For Papers – Nigerian Business Law Journal

The Nigerian Business Law Journal is a policy-oriented journal published by the Global Centre for Law, Business and Economy, a research institute and think-tank that provides research, consultancy and educational services in the law and development space. Started in March 2017, the journal is now calling for articles to be published in its February 2022 issue. Contributions are expected to fall within the broad disciplinary area of Business Law. In addition to being relevant to issues in Business Law, articles must be policy-oriented, meaning that they should involve critique, propose reforms, and shed light on future developments as regards laws, policies and institutions. The editors will employ a double-blind peer review process in selecting articles for publication. Accepted articles will be published both in hard copy and on the journal’s website.
