The journal publishes articles on a range of topics in international and comparative law.

Under the leadership of then editor in chief Eisuke Suzuki, a graduate fellow from Tokyo, the first issue was produced without assistance from the Law School.

About ten years after its founding, the Yale Law School started to support the journal.
