The Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy (DJGLP) is an interdisciplinary law journal published by students at the Duke University School of Law.
The journal describes itself as focusing on topics "relating to gender, sexuality, race, and class in the context of law and public policy" and with the mission to "foster debate, to publish work largely overlooked by other law reviews, and to encourage scholarship outside the bounds of conventional law school curricula...[t]aking an expansive view of law, engaging other disciplines including literature, sociology, anthropology, psychology, politics, and critical theory. Our goal is not only to explore what the law was and is, but what it could and should be."[1]
Published twice yearly, DJGLP issues are usually centered on a selected topic which in past years has included "Gender and Race in Adoption," "HIV Law and Policy," "Gender and Sports," "Gender Issues in Divorce," and "Queer Theory." In January 2007, DJGLP published "Makeup, Identity Performance & Discrimination," the largest issue ever published by any journal at Duke Law School. In May 2007, DJGLP published "Gender, Sexuality & the Military," the second largest issue ever published by any journal at Duke Law School.
The staff of DJGLP is 36 student editors, selected for membership based on performance in the 1L Casenote Competition and the 2L Work-on/Note-on Program. The faculty advisor is Professor Catherine Fisk, who provides general guidance and advises the editors in topic and author selection.
