This requirement, however, does not apply to those pieces which relate to EU or international law.<\/li>\n<li>Although we encourage students to write new material for the Law Review, we are happy to accept pieces of written coursework with a new title and further development.<\/li>\n<li>You can be as bias as you want, this is <strong>your<\/strong> opinion on the law and your discussion of ideas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h5><strong>Article Length<\/strong><\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Short Articles &#8211; approx. 500 &#8211; 2,000 words max.<\/li>\n<li>Long articles &#8211; approx. 2,500 &#8211; 8,000 words max.<\/li>\n<li>Case Notes &#8211; approx. 500 &#8211; 1,000 words max.<\/li>\n<li>Commentary &#8211; approx. 1,000 &#8211; 1,500 words max.<\/li>\n<li>Book reviews and reports &#8211; approx. 500 &#8211; 1,000 words.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There will be some flexibility with the word counts, however, we encourage articles to be concise as possible.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>References<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>All submissions must conform to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.ox.ac.uk\/sites\/files\/oxlaw\/oscola_4th_edn_hart_2012.pdf\">OSCOLA<\/a> referencing system.
