About EuLF
Since 2000, the European Legal Forum (EuLF) has regularly provided information about developments in various areas of the European ius commune. Special emphasis is placed on private international law and European and international civil procedure, commercial and company law, family law and successions, consumer law and labour law. The EuLF is directed at an international readership and provides researchers and legal practitioners with in-depth information on current developments in case law and legislation. Each volume of the EuLF also includes a section of book reviews.
The journal is linked to the online portal unalex, which allows direct online access to the case law cited therein.
From 2020, the EuLF will also be published online. It will be accompanied by a new concept of National Editorial Boards, where the plan is to publish content in languages other than English with a view to reporting back interesting information, briefly summarised, to the main, (still printed) English journal.

National Editorial Boards
From 2020 on, a number of National Editorial Boards in various EU Member States together with a central coordinating board will be responsible for the editorial coordination of the journal, in order to connect the journal more closely to the ongoing national legal discussion.
The organisation of the Board of editors of The European Legal Forum through National Editorial Boards under the common umbrella of one European legal journal will anchor the journal more closely in the legal discussion in each Member State. Who other than the leading researchers in each jurisdiction are better prepared to capture the discussion in their respective home jurisdiction? Who better to select the most relevant case law from their courts and put into evidence those aspects that make it a case of interest under the common principles of European law? Who other than the editors in the various Member States are better prepared for a joint discussion of legal issues of overall European interest?
The European Legal Forum is planning to establish National Editorial Boards over time in a growing number of Member States. We are delighted by the enthusiasm encountered by our new editors in the first Member States involved. Welcome to the new editors and to those who will join them in the future!
