Our Mission

The Journal of International and Comparative Law’s mission is to contribute to the development of international and comparative law and promote greater understanding of international and comparative law at Notre Dame Law School as well as within the legal community at large.

We work to achieve this mission by providing a forum of discussion about the international, comparative, and human rights law challenges of our time; by educating students about international legal issues; by providing open and equal access to our electronic publications; by being economically efficient, environmentally sustainable, and immediately responsive to current events in the field of international law; and by inspiring our readers to work towards overcoming these challenging issues.
