LAW AND JUDICIAL SYSTEMS OF NATIONS

In 2002 the WJA published the 4th Edition of Law & Judicial Systems of Nations. This long-awaited reference guide to the legal systems of more than 190 nations emerged as a follow-up to the highly acclaimed 1978 edition by Charles S. Rhyne. Nowhere else will you find such complete information compiled into one easy-to-use publication. No library would be complete without this one-of-a-kind reference guide.

Contact us for the special membership rate of $110.00 (overseas shipping may have additional charges).

 

ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE: A SURVEY OF NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL LAWS

The collection of articles in this volume provide a survey of five years of scholarship by the World Jurist Association, its members and the distinguished experts who have lent their time to speak and present their findings at our conferences around the world. This book will help you navigate through the sometimes confusing legal scholarship of climate change. The UN’s Copenhagen Conference set the stage for future collaboration. It is in this legal environment that the world’s leaders need to come together to determine the best way to protect our environment – and through it our health and well-being. These chapters will help you understand where the climate change discussion has been and where it needs to go next.

Contact us for the special membership rate of USD $80.00 which includes US domestic shipping (overseas shipping will incur the cost of postage).

WORKPAPERS

Following every conference and most seminars, the WJA publishes the scholarly papers presented. Individual copies of these work papers are available for purchase.
