The Immigration and Nationality Law Review INLR is an internationally recognized annual law Academic journal journal , published by William S. Hein & Co., Inc., of New York . Overview Created in 1976, the INLR was originally a reprint journal that served the scholarly community as an anthology of the most seminal law review articles on immigration and nationality. It included legislative summaries and a limited number of original contributions. Since its move to the University of Cincinnati College of Law in 1999 from Western New England College School of Law , the journal has substantially expanded to include student casenotes, comments, book reviews and essays. Today, the INLR is one of only two major student edited American law journals devoted exclusively to the study of immigration law, the other being the Georgetown Immigration Law Journal. The Journal publishes articles on timely issues .... The journal consists of original immigration and nationality law articles, republications of immigration and nationality law articles, and original student submissions which are selected for their excellence. While primarily focused on immigration law, which seeks to define who may enter and reside in a country, INLR incorporates subject matter well beyond immigration. In particular, the INLR addresses issues of nationality which considers the formal relationship between a citizen of a nation and the nation itself. Since immigration and nationality work together to delineate citizenship ..., immigration and nationality frequently implicate issues of race, gender, class, and national security.
