# Buffalo Human Rights Law Review
!!
The *Buffalo Human Rights Law Review (BHRLR)* focuses on the interdisciplinary study of human rights, both on the international and domestic fronts. Founded in 1994 as the *Buffalo Journal of International Law*, the *BHRLR* was renamed in 1997 to better reflect the journal's projects and relationship to the International Law Concentration and the Buffalo Human Rights Center.
The *BHRLR* publishes annually in the Spring.
