European Union Law /Links bei LLRX.com
am 04.10.2006 von Transblawg
LLRX.com is only updated once a month nowadays, but it’s always worth looking at the old stuff - a lot of foreign legal systems discussed in English.
Meanwhile Rainer Langenhan reminds me once again that there is a new set of entries out.
What is particularly interesting is an updated version of European Union Law: An Integrated Guide to Electronic and Printed Research. Unfortunately, they chose a bad time to publish - some of the links are out of date, but it should be easy enough to find the right ones - this applies to Oscola at the end as well as eur-lex links.
It seems that the EU addresses have nearly all changed, now that the .eu domain is available. Delia Venables writes on October 3:
#he Europa site now has a new web address - europa.eu. After all, the new country code of .eu was set up by the European community so it is quite reasonable that is should take advantage of its own nice new web address! (The previous address was europa.eu.int, using the .int designation - this still works but the viewer is redirected automatically to the new address).
Also with new web addresses, all as sub addresses of the Europa site:
EUR-LEX and
The European Parliament
The European Court of Justice.
The European Court of Human Rights however still seems to be using the old address with the .int designation.
But the ECHR is a separate entity and applies to a wider Europe, of course.

In case in British and American English
