Georgetown Law Technology Review
The Georgetown Law Technology Review (GLTR) is an online law journal that seeks to serve professionals at the intersection of law and technology by closing the gap between the two different languages often spoken by lawyers and technologists.
Each issue of GLTR covers pertinent areas of technology law and policy in an in-depth but accessible way through articles from academics, student notes, literature reviews, explanations of complex technologies, and discussions of legal developments.
The publication draws from the major themes of privacy, cybersecurity, intellectual property, and telecommunications, but also looks to cover new developments where technology meets the legal profession.
GLTR publishes two major issues per year with other content regularly published in between. In keeping with the technological ethos, all content will be published exclusively online with open access.
Technology in science-based disciplines often focuses on the numbers and looks towards answers that often are black or white. At GLTR, we strive to talk about the people — and the policy — behind the technology, looking for often grey answers. We have seen how technology intersects with people in ways that numbers alone cannot fully explain: housing, personal autonomy, privacy, national security, and even food interact with technology, and GLTR is excited to add to the discussion.
As the Editor-in-Chief of Volume 9 of the Journal, I am overjoyed to work with an amazing team equally excited about technology law scholarship. With both our Winter and Spring Issues, we hope to add to the robust discussions happening across the country about how we wish to interact with technology. We hope that you’ll enjoy what we have to say!
