Description:

The Swiss Institute of Comparative Law (Institut suisse de droit comparé, or ISDC) was established in Lausanne in 1982. Its primary task is to prepare legal opinions in respect of foreign law for the Federal authorities, courts, lawyers and other individuals. It also produces studies in comparative law, holds colloquia and carries out research projects. The Institute has an extensive law library, whose catalogue is available via the website. A set of legal links for countries from Afghanistan to Zambia is available on the Law Online page, annotated in English. The Publications page makes available the ISDC's newsletter (in French, 2004 onwards), together with a monthly EU bulletin, "EU News: Click & Read" (in English, 2004 onwards). It also gives details of the two series "Publications of the Swiss Institute of Comparative Law" and "Yearbook of Private International Law". The interface is in English, French, German and Italian, with most of the content in French and/or English.
