- Summary
- The Journal of civil law studies is a peer-reviewed, online and open-access periodical, published by the Center of Civil Law Studies. LSU Law students participate in the editorial process once papers have been accepted for publication. First published in 2008, it promotes a comparative and interdisciplinary approach to the civil law in Louisiana and in the world. The JCLS is intended to promote a multidisciplinary and pluralistic approach, and to focus on the following themes: - The evolution of the law in mixed jurisdictions, chiefly Louisiana - The evolution of the civil law in an English-speaking environment - The impact of globalization on the evolution of the civil law and the common law - The impact of the civil law and the common law outside the western world and their interrelation with other legal traditions - Bridging the divide between civil law and common law in the American hemisphere and in the European area - The combination of the civil law and common law traditions in the harmonization and unification processes, with a focus on linguistic issues.
