Uti Possidetis: Journal of International Law is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to promoting the role of international law in Indonesia and fostering interest among Indonesian scholars and decision-makers in building a rule-based international community. It serves as an academic forum for discussing the development of international law in Indonesia, the broader Asian region, and the developing world. The journal welcomes contributions from scholars and practitioners to shape a robust, rule-based international order by presenting current academic debates and critical perspectives on the evolution of international law.

The journal focuses on a wide array of international law topics, including but not limited to International Law, International Human Rights Law, the Law of the Sea, Air and Space Law, Diplomatic Law, International Environmental Law, Information and Technology Law, International Economic and Trade Law, Refugee Law, Private International Law, and other contemporary issues. Each issue is published on a thematic basis and accepts manuscripts that address conceptual, theoretical, and practical topics in an exploratory and analytical style. Uti Possidetis invites writers to contribute works that strengthen the role and effectiveness of international law, emphasizing innovative approaches rather than descriptive analysis.
