- Foreign Primary Law on the Web -
http://www.law.uh.edu/librarians/tmulligan/foreignlaw.html
Included are sites that offer foreign primary law, either in the original
languages or in translation. Excluded are sites that do not offer foreign
primary law. All translations are interpretations. You should not infer from
the links offered on this page that only legislation and judicial decisions
matter in resolving legal disputes abroad. Many foreign countries rely on a
civil law system, as opposed to the common law system of the U.S., Canada,
the United Kingdom, and some other countries. In civil law countries,
scholarly legal commentary, called "doctrine", is used to interpret the
codes and other legislation, which serve as the main source of law.
Judicial decisions, called "jurisprudence" in many civil law countries,
are not ordinarily as important as doctrine.
