About the Human Rights and Globalization Law Review
The Human Rights and Globalization Law Review (Law Review) was a voluntary, student-managed and faculty-supervised, unofficial publication at Howard University School of Law published from 2007 to 2016. The Law Review became the successor to the Howard Scroll: Social Justice Law Review (Scroll). Expounding upon the foundation of Scroll, the Law Review published timely articles that focused on and contributed to an ever-changing, national and international, legal landscape.
In line with the mission of the law school, the Law Review enhanced scholarly dialogue on various issues of humanity, equal justice, social policy and worldwide development. Accordingly, the Law Review served as a legal and academic outlet for addressing thoughtful questions, and proffering answers about topics such as poverty, human trafficking, company outsourcing, genocide, mass incarceration, women's and children's rights, and the wide-ranging implications of war.
