Transnational thrives in its unique role as both a prestigious Honor Board and a complement to Suffolk University Law School's distinguished international law faculty and international law organizations. Each year, Transnational publishes one volume, which consists of three books, one in the winter and summer, as well as a symposium book. Each book consists of lead articles authored by noted legal scholars and staff members' works.

A Book Review examines recent publications addressing areas of international law. A Case Comment studies a recent international law decision in detail and analyzes the context of the holding and the decision's potential impact.

The Executive Board is comprised of ten students in their second year with Transnational who manage and direct the operations of the journal.
