Welcome to the EPLO Publications!

The EPLO is an international organization dedicated to the creation and dissemination of knowledge in the area of Governance and Public Law lato sensu, including but not limited to, inter alia, national, comparative and European public law, human rights law and environmental law. Its mission is to promote European values for a better generation of lawyers and democratic institutions worldwide. As such, since 2013 it has undertaken as a Publisher one of the most acknowledged journals in the field of public law, the European Review of Public Law (ERPL) and its special editions, as well as other periodical editions and stand-alone publications dealing with public law issues.

European Review of Public Law journal

Published and supported by the EPLO, the European Review of Public Law is a quarterly publication with more than 1.500 pages yearly, established in 1989 to create an international forum for analysis and discussion of issues in the development of constitutional and administrative law in Europe. Not only does it examine a wide range of issues that relate to the European Union, the European Convention on Human Rights, the national public law and practices, as well as to their mutual interaction and influence but it also covers other jurisdictions that interplay with the European Public Law systems and/or offer relevant comparative insights.

The Review is accompanied by 4 special editions: 

European Public Law Series

The European Public Law Series created in 1998, is constituted of a series of books, monographs and essays purporting to contribute, through research or reflection thereby taking place, to the creation of a European public law - in particular through the systematic study of the different aspects of national legal systems in the EU Member States, in the European Union itself, as well as of their evolution & their convergence. 

European Papers

European Papers is a series of succinct monographs focused on the fundamental categories of European Union law. The Series was inaugurated in 2001 with the aim of providing a forum of academic reflection and dialogue in the field, and has ever since concentrated on matters pertinent to the fundamental institutional elements of the Union, structures and practices of European governance, and patterns of continuity and change reflected in the development of EU law.

Academy of European Public Law Series

The Academy of European Public Law Series was launched in 2009, aiming at publishing the most representative results of the work of the Academy of European Public Law graduates. This series shows the quality of the work done in this academic environment and aims at encouraging an even better level of quality, as excellence is the only objective of the Academy.

European Environmental Law Series

The European Environmental Law Series was created in 2009, conscious of the role of comparative environmental law in the development of an effective global environmental protection and management system, focusing on the different aspects of national legal systems in the EU Member States, in the EU itself and worldwide.
