About
The Asian Journal for Legal & Economic Thought (http://ajlet.org/) is an initiative to provide a platform to budding scholars and students. The Journal aspires to promote original thinking in the spheres of law and economics, and to also promote critical responses in related fields.
The Journal recognises the issues that many of the students face while getting their ideas publish. We acknowledge the fact that being a student does not necessarily mean that the research exhibited by any student is unworthy of being published. We wish to capture the spirit of free thinking among students and young scholars.
