Types of Articles Accepted

• Original Legal Analysis
  These articles must contain in-depth legal analysis about a particular issue, domestically or internationally. Articles must contain sound legal arguments with supporting analysis. Articles can be neutral and include discussion on different points of view, or they can take an adversarial approach and advocate for or against a particular position.
• Original Multi-disciplinary Analysis
  These articles must contain a quasi-legal analysis in addition to a substantive analysis in a related cross-disciplinary field (e.g., contract or intellectual property law). Articles can be neutral and include discussion on different points of view or they can take an adversarial approach and advocate for or against a particular position.
• Case comments
  These articles must provide an analysis of a recently decided court decision related to Internet and technology law. The articles should contain the facts, a brief overview of the legal proceedings, an analysis and how the decision will impact the community.
• Practice-based Articles
  These articles aim to provide lawyers and non-lawyers with useful practical tips in the area of Internet and technology law. They can be educational, descriptive and technical in nature (e.g., practice primers, checklists, and flowcharts).
• Current Affairs
  These articles are structured around three central areas as follows: 
1. We encourage readers to submit short commentaries on current issues. For instance, readers can provide updates on recent legislative amendments or government or corporate decisions. In addition to being factual, these submissions must also contain a short analysis of the issue and its impact. We encourage these short (500 words or less) commentaries to be provided as close to the submission deadline as possible in order to be relevant.
2. Asked and Answered: we encourage an interesting question and answer dialogue for publication.
3. We encourage our readers to submit information regarding any upcoming events or conferences in Internet or technology law. We will publish the information in the upcoming publication.
• Letters to the Editor (Opinion-Based)
  Letters or articles may be submitted in response to a recently published article in ITLC or on general Internet and technology law related matters. Letters are meant to be insightful, provide food for thought and foster healthy debate.
• Book Reviews
  These reviews must be based on either a new or old (but useful) book that is of benefit to the community.

** Articles will not be considered if they contain language that is offensive, abusive, or that violates the rights of any third party.
