Mention de droit d'auteur

MUJLP publishes online and is available free of charge. The McMaster Undergraduate Journal of Law & Politics strongly believes that its content should be fully open and accessible to all students, and interested individuals within the fields. In addition, due to the fact that this journal publishes works authored by undergraduate students, who may otherwise not find a publishing avenue, we believe that the author should have full copyright but must acknowledge MUJLP as the first publisher.
