University of Nairobi Journals

The East African Law Journal is a faculty-run Journal of the University of Nairobi, Faculty of Law. Since the 1960s, the Journal has published papers by legal scholars and practitioners in Kenya and the East African region, as well as by researchers from all over the world interested in law in East Africa. However, the collapse of the East African Community in 1977 was followed by the lapse of the publication of the Journal, which was at the time edited jointly by the Faculty of Law and the Community. Since then, there have been international, regional, and national legal developments. Therefore, when the Journal was revived in the mid-2000s, its objective was to provide a forum for scholars in the region and the world to publish their academic papers on diverse topical legal issues, relevant to law in East Africa.
