Abstract
The Utrecht Law Review is an open-access peer-reviewed journal which aims to offer an international academic platform for cross-border legal research. In the first place, this concerns research in which the boundaries of the classic branches of the law (private law, criminal law, constitutional and administrative law, European and public international law) are crossed and connections are made between these areas of the law, amongst others from a comparative law perspective. In addition, the journal welcomes research in which classic law is brought face to face with not strictly legal disciplines such as philosophy, economics, political sciences and public administration science.The journal was established in 2005 and is affiliated to the Utrecht University School of Law.

Summary
The Utrecht legal research master: the first five years Utrecht University set up a two-year legal research master’s degree.1 In this brief introduction at the occasion of the first lustrum of this master’s programme I would like to make some observations as to its background, its current standing and its future. Most universities do allow law faculties to set up at least one two-year programme with a limited enrolment. Utrecht first considered introducing a two-year master’s programme for legal practice, but changed its mind.
