The Studentische Zeitschrift für Rechtswissenschaft Heidelberg ("StudZR"; English: "Heidelberg Law Review") is a law review published by an independent group of law students at Heidelberg University (Germany). It was established in 2004.[1] [2] [3] [4] To celebrate its 10th anniversary a symposium was organized in June 2014 under the patronage of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and Art.[3]
The journal comprises two separate publications with different objectives. The bi-annual StudZR Ausbildung print edition focuses on study-related topics such as case solutions based on previous law exams from Heidelberg University, essays concerning exam techniques as well as jurisprudence and textbook reviews. The StudZR Wissenschaft Online (WissOn)[5] website includes classic legal articles, analyses of recent court cases and book reviews. Since 2012, the StudZR Heidelberg Law Review also manages an online blog with relevant news and updates.[6]
The editorial board comprises around 50 law students, articled clerks, and post-graduate PhDs who manage the entire editing and publishing process as well as marketing and sponsorship functions. The journal is headed by an editor-in-chief, a chief of marketing and a chief of finance.[7]
