Trade, Law and Development is a bi-annual, student-run, academic journal published by National Law University, India.

Inspired by the best traditions of scholarly journals worldwide, Trade, Law and Development seeks to explore inter-disciplinary perspectives on the international legal order, focusing on issues of relevance to the international trading system, environment and development; as well as policy issues. In keeping with our institutional belief that knowledge is empowerment, TL&D seeks to establish itself as an authority in these areas and contribute to the dissemination of ideas and promotion of free thinking in the developing world. 

Trade, Law and Development offers a forum for the free exchange of ideas and generation of constructive debate on legal and policy issues surrounding international trade, environment and development. Towards these ends the Journal publishes original works from a diverse and distinguished pool of authors, comprising, inter alia, scholars, practitioners, and students. Committed to improving access to research, TL&D is a signatory to the Budapest Open Access Initiative and is indexed on the PKP-Open Archives Harvester2 archive.

One of the premier law universities of India, National Law University, Jodhpur, has undertaken consistent efforts to promote thinking, research and writing in the field of international law and development. Not only has the University excelled in traditional legal education, it also inculcates an innovative, hands-on approach to the study of emerging fields of legal discourse.
