Societies

OUP publishes journals in conjunction with the following specialist societies:

The American Law and Economics Association

The American Law and Economics Association is dedicated to the advancement of economic understanding of law and related areas of public policy and regulation. Founded in 1991, the membership includes academic and practising lawyers and economists. The Association publishes a newsletter and a membership directory and holds an annual two-day meeting in May at which members present papers dealing with a wide variety of topics concerning the interrelation of law and economics. The Association also publishes a scholarly journal, the American Law and Economics Review, published by Oxford University Press, which is included with membership.

The British Institute of International and Comparative Law

The Institute promotes the international rule of law and human rights by its activities in the fields of comparative law, international law and the conflict of laws, and in the fields of European law and Commonwealth law. The Institutes unique contribution is, as Lord Denning stated in 1952, in moving freely over the boundaries that divide these fields of law and bringing out the underlying unities. The Institute's location at the heart of the common law world and the financial and commercial centre of London, and between continental Europe and America, dictates and supports this mission. The Institute provides a unique focus on the development of an international legal order, and also of the European Union and European Human Rights. It is deeply involved in the development of international, commercial, and financial law. Assistance to new or struggling democracies and to developing economies is a core task.
