About this journal

The European Property Law Journal (EPLJ) offers a publication platform for research on property in the widest sense. Including, but not limited to, the EPLJ publishes research on issues relating to land, movables, claims, data, IP, AI, energy, environment, and migration. Articles are based on comparative, European and global perspectives and often are based on theoretical, doctrinal, historical, economic intra- and interdisciplinary methods. This includes for example work using empirical, ethnographic, geographic, sociological, economic, and historical methods.

The EPLJ adheres to a double-blind peer review process to decide on publication and welcomes submissions from authors from all over the world. The Editors of the European Property Law Journal uphold the quality of the journal. The peer review process is carried out by experts who are independent from the journal’s Editorial Board and free from conflicts of interest.
