As globalization proceeds, the significance of the comparative approach in legal
scholarship increases. The IACL / AIDC with almost 800 members is the major
universal organization promoting comparative research in law and organizing congresses with hundreds of participants in all parts of the world. The results of those
congresses should be disseminated and be available for legal scholars in a single
book series which would make both the Academy and its contribution to comparative law more visible. The series aims to publish the scholarship emerging from the
congresses of IACL / AIDC, including: 1. of the General Congresses of Comparative
Law, which take place every 4 years (Brisbane 2002; Utrecht 2006, Washington
2010, Vienna 2014, Fukuoka 2018 etc.) and which generate (a) one volume of
General Reports edited by the local organizers of the Congress; (b) up to 30 volumes
of selected thematic reports dealing with the topics of the single sections of the
congress and containing the General Report as well as the National Reports of that
section; these volumes would be edited by the General Reporters of the respective
sections; 2. the volumes containing selected contributions to the smaller (2-3 days)
thematic congresses which take place between the International Congresses (Mexico
2008; Taipei 2012; Montevideo 2016 etc.); these congresses have a general theme
such as “Codification” or “The Enforcement of Law” and will be edited by the local
organizers of the respective Congress. All publications may contain contributions in
English and French, the official languages of the Academy.
