Foreign Law

Resources for foreign law research.

Page Explanation

This page suggests places to access current information relating to international law.

While I would not advise citing to a blog in your research papers, they can often be good places to look for what's currently happening in a given field, and may give you ideas for topics for your papers. Most (but not all) of the blogs listed here are written by professors, so they also give you an idea of the people involved in the field.

I have also listed a few places to go for news on international issues, hopefully taking you a bit beyond the news sites you might already visit on a regular basis.

Westlaw & Lexis

While Westlaw and Lexis do not have the comprehensive coverage for other countries that they do for the United States, they do have some foreign law databases.
