A Good Research Guide for International and Comparative Law

Recently, I stumbled over a very helpful website I would like to share with everyone who reads this blog. The website is called GlobalLex and is published by NYU's Hauser Global Law School program. GlobalLex proves an extremely useful tool for conducting research on topics of international and comparative law. It consists of four parts: (1) International Law Research, (2) Comparative Law Research, (3) Foreign Law Research, and (4) Tools for Building Foreign, Comparative, and International Law Collections. It is a compilation of articles written by scholars from around the world. For me personally, the Foreign Law Research tool proves especially helpful; whenever I need a statute or case from some foreign country, I can go to GlobalLex-Foreign Law Research and click on the country I am interested in. There, I usually find a short introduction to the country's legal system as well as useful legal links. GlobalLex has helped me a lot in my comparative law research.
