\nadvancing scholarship that critically examines and addresses issues of unlawful or
\nwanton acts committed with knowledge that there is a substantial likelihood of
\nsevere, widespread, or long-term damage to the environment caused by those acts.
\nThis is consistent with ongoing global efforts to criminalise ecocide and form the
\nbedrock of our editorial focus.<\/p>\n
\nethical publication practices and the dissemination of world-class research.<\/p>\n
\nThe Journal of Environmental Justice and Ecocide Studies (JEJES) is a
\ndistinguished peer-reviewed academic journal that fosters critical scholarship, legal
\ndiscourse, and policy analysis. While acknowledging the broad spectrum of
\nenvironmental injustices, this Journal uniquely prioritises and seeks
\nsubmissions that rigorously analyse and are primarily focused on ecocide.<\/p>\n
\nto:<\/p>\n\n
\nremediating ecocide.<\/li>\n
\nimpacts on communities and ecosystems.<\/li>\n
\nRome Statute of the International Criminal Court.<\/li>\n
\naddressing ecocide.<\/li>\n
\necocide.<\/li>\n
\nclimate justice.<\/li>\n
\nenvironmental destruction on a scale that constitutes ecocide.<\/li>\n
\nacts committed with the knowledge that severe and widespread or long-term
\nenvironmental damage is likely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nAll submissions to the Journal undergo a rigorous double-blind peer-review process.
\nThe editors initially screen submissions for relevance, quality, and adherence to this
\npolicy, and they subsequently review them by at least two independent expert
\nreviewers. The review process is meticulously designed to ensure the publication of
\nhigh-quality, original, and impactful scholarship. Editorial decisions are based on the
\nrecommendations of the reviewers and the editorial team, with a commitment to
\nproviding timely feedback to authors.<\/p>\n
\nAuthors are invited to submit original scholarly work that has not been previously
\npublished nor is currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. All
\nsubmissions must be written in clear, concise English (British spelling and grammar
\npreferred) and conform to academic expression standards.<\/p>\n
\nstate and future evolution of law and policy addressing profound environmental
\nharms, particularly ecocide. Submissions should meticulously detail the prevailing
\nlegal frameworks (comprising relevant legislation, international conventions, and
\njudicial authorities) and robustly explore complex, ‘grey areas’ where the law is
\nunsettled or nascent. Authors are strongly encouraged to present well-reasoned
\narguments, proposing legal innovations, and offering expert opinions on the
\ntrajectory of accountability for widespread or long-term environmental destruction.<\/p>\n
\nSubmissions should generally not exceed 10,000 words (including footnotes), or
\napproximately thirty (30) pages, and must be submitted in Microsoft Word format.
\nFor longer manuscripts, prior consultation with the editorial office is required.
\ni. Authors should adopt 1.5 line spacing between lines of the main text.
\nii. All submissions must be in Times New Roman font, size 12.
\niii. References are to be provided in footnotes (Times New Roman, font size 10) and
\nmust strictly adhere to the OSCOLA (Oxford University Standard for Citation of Legal
\nAuthorities) referencing style, latest edition or the Nigerian Association of Law

\niv. The submission titles should be centred and in Title Case.
\nv. Author(s) names should follow below the title, centred. A separate, concise author biography (not exceeding one hundred and fifty (150) words per author) must be submitted; this profile does not count towards the page\/word limit.
\nvi. The manuscript should be structured using a clear hierarchical numbering system
\n(e.g., Arabic numerals for main sections, followed by decimals or letters for
\nsubsections):<\/p>\n
