Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

This article identifies two models now at work in the Netherlands, models that present potentially competing visions of practical training for law graduates seeking entry into the legal profession.

Military Intervention And Diplomatic Engagement In Libya: A Collage Of Policy, Force And Law, Paul Williams, Anna Triponel

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
