Founded in 2009, the philosophy of Trade, Law and Development (TL&D) has been to generate and sustain a constructive and democratic debate on emergent issues in international economic law and to serve as a forum for the discussion and distribution of ideas. 

​

Towards these ends, the Journal has published works by noted scholars such as the World Trade Organization’s Deputy Director General, Yonov F. Agah, Dr. (Prof.) Ernst Ulrich Petersmann, Prof. Christian Häberli, Prof. Petros Mavroidis, Prof. Mitsuo Matsuhita, Prof. Raj Bhala, Prof. Joel Trachtman, Dr. (Prof.) Gabrielle Marceau, Prof. Simon Lester, Prof. Bryan Mercurio, and Prof. M. Sornarajah, among others. TL&D also has the distinction of being ranked the best journal in India across all fields of law for seven consecutive years by Washington and Lee University School of Law.

​

Accordingly, the Board of Editors of TL&D is pleased to invite original, unpublished manuscripts for publication in the General Issue of the Journal (Vol. XVII, No. 2) in the form of ‘Articles’, ‘Notes’, ‘Comments’ and ‘Book Reviews’.

Manuscripts received by March 10, 2026 pertaining to any area within the purview of international economic law will be reviewed for publication in the Summer’26 issue.

​

Manuscripts may be submitted via e-mail or the Journal’s website. In case of any queries, please feel free to contact us at: tradelawdevelopmentnluj[at]gmail.com.
