Connecticut Journal of International Law

Founded in 1985, the Connecticut Journal of International Law publishes articles covering a range of topics in international and comparative law, including analysis of the extraterritorial effects of domestic law and policy. Past publications have examined, amongst other things, developments and issues in intellectual property, corporate, human rights, trade, national defense, and environmental law. Past CJIL members have elevated to prestigious positions in the legal field, such as serving on the Connecticut Supreme Court. CJIL leads discussion and debate on current legal issues through our annual Symposium. Symposiums bring together experts and legal scholars to examine developments and problems in law and society through an international and comparative lens. Symposiums offer attendees a chance to engage with leading scholars in the field as well as law students, local and international lawyers, and interested members of the public. These events usually take place in early spring and are free to attend.
