The Berkeley Journal of Gender, Law & Justice (informally known as Gender Journal) was founded in 1984 by a group of students at the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law who came together with a vision of “preserving our voices of diversity and maintaining our commitment to social change within the often-stifling confines of a law school environment.”

Now in its 36th year of publication, the Berkeley Journal of Gender, Law & Justice is guided by an editorial policy that distinguishes us from other law reviews and feminist journals, which is to publish feminist legal scholarship that critically examines the intersection of gender with one or more axes of subordination, including, but not limited to, race, class, sexual orientation, and disability.

As a part of our journal you can expect to be fully involved in selecting articles to publish through a discussion and voting process and editing and cite-checking selected articles. We are also just a rad community to be a part of! If you are interested in learning more about what we are up to and how to sign up, fill out this form!
