About the Journal

Judex Journal of Judicial Studies (JJJS) is devoted to the study of courts, judging, and the administration of justice. Its central concern is adjudication both as an institution and as a process: how courts are constituted and governed, how judges reason and decide, how procedural rules shape substantive outcomes, and how judicial authority is exercised, constrained, and legitimated.

The journal is organised around the judicial function rather than around a single field of substantive law. It welcomes scholarship on criminal, civil, administrative, constitutional, military, religious, and customary adjudication alike, provided that the analysis speaks to the courts, the procedure, or the reasoning through which law is applied. Doctrinal, socio-legal, empirical, historical, and comparative research are equally welcome, with particular value placed on work that moves beyond describing a judgment toward a critical assessment of judicial reasoning and its institutional consequences.

Edited from Borneo with sustained engagement in the Indonesian judiciary, JJJS is comparative and international in outlook, inviting work on Southeast Asian judicial systems, ASEAN judicial cooperation, and international and regional courts and tribunals, from authors in any jurisdiction. The journal publishes exclusively in English so that scholarship on Indonesian and Southeast Asian courts reaches an international readership.
