History
The journal was established in 1983 and has featured symposia and special issues on environmental law, federalism, and telecommunications. In 2009, it was a sponsor of the Weil, Gotshal & Manges Roundtable on the "Future of Financial Regulation," where legal academics and panelists evaluated the causes of the subprime mortgage crisis and proposed solutions.
In 2008, the journal launched the Walton H. Hamilton Prize (in honor of the former Yale Law professor, New Deal economic advisor, and Antitrust Division official), awarded by its Executive Board to the most outstanding accepted manuscript on the study and understanding of regulatory policy.
After thirty years, the journal started JREG Online, a forum to publish timely views and shorter pieces.
