The Ecclesiastical Law Journal is published by Cambridge University Press on behalf of the Ecclesiastical Law Society.

Launched in 1987 the Journal exists to foster and promote the study of all aspects of ecclesiastical law. With a primary focus on the study of the law of the Church of England and the Anglican Communion the content is now broader, encompassing the growing academic study of law and religion and human rights from ecumenical, international, social, historical and comparative perspectives. Articles and comment pieces relating to these areas of study are welcomed for consideration.

The Journal also carries news of relevant UK legislation and of the business of the governing bodies of certain British and Irish Churches. Case notes cover notable cases in the Consistory Courts of the Church of England and other forums where cases of interest are decided. Books for review are welcomed in relevant areas of study.
