The mission of CICL Currents is fourfold. First, it serves as a platform for the dissemination of scholarship, particularly work that engages with current events, emerging legal questions, and comparative perspectives that benefit from timely publication. Second, it functions as a resource for information about international, transnational, and comparative law, and different branches of these disciplines (Link to Resources). Third, it offers up-to-date information about further education and potential professional pathways, and other opportunities in international, transnational, and comparative law. Finally, our News and Events section provides information about the latest developments in international, transnational and comparative law, and forthcoming conferences, seminars, and webinars.  

Through this combination of scholarly engagement and practical information, CICL Currents seeks to support the intellectual and professional development of Emory law students and the wider legal community. 

The blog addresses a wide range of topics, and here are the key categories:  

• Public and private international law; 

• Comparative constitutional and administrative law,  

• Comparative private law; 

• Transnational regulation and governance; 

• Regional and global legal institutions;  

• The interaction between domestic legal systems and international norms; and 

• Enforcement of international law through various international courts, tribunals, arbitration bodies, and through domestic legal justice systems: strategic litigation and other mechanisms.
