InSITE highlights selected law-related World Wide Web sites in two ways: as an annotated publication issued electronically and in print; and as a keyword-searchable database.

The law librarians at Cornell evaluate potentially useful Web sites, select the most valuable ones, and provide commentary and subject access to them. These information can be accessed as following:


Applicable Law (Conflicts)
URL: http://ra.irv.uit.no/trade_law/nav/conflicts.html
This page brings together the full text of four major conventions regarding private international law: Convention on the Law Applicable to International Sales of Goods, Convention on the Law Applicable to Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, EC Convention on the Law Applicable to Contractual Obligations, and Convention on the Law Applicable to Agency. This is part of the International Trade Law site, which is hosted by the University of Tromsø Law Faculty in Norway. Documents are well-organized and easy to browse online.

Arizona Administrative Code
URL: http://www.sosaz.com/Rules_and_Regulations.htm
This site is the initial effort to mount the Arizona Administrative Code on a website. The rules are indexed under the 20 Titles which define the broad subject areas of the Code. At present, the full text of the rules published in Supp. 96-4 is available. Rules in future supplements will be placed on the Internet as those supplements are published. The retroactive addition of rules published in Supps. 96-3, 96-2, and 96-1 is also planned. The site provides for the ordering of the official version (paper copy) of any rules from the Secretary of State's Office.

CLA Home Page
URL: http://cla.org
Maintained by the law firm of Davis & Schroeder, in Monterey, California, this is the home page of the Computer Law Association (CLA), an international, non-profit association, with members currently from 44 countries. The members of the association are bound by a common interest in the legal and practical problems of attorneys and others working in and with computer hardware, software, and telecommunications businesses. Under the heading, "Recent Case Developments" are summaries of opinions dealing with Computer Law decided by Federal district courts and Courts of Appeals. There are also job listings for attorneys specializing in Computer Law. Links abound to sites dealing with General Electronics and Computer References (e.g., NTIS, Bell Laboratories), Computer Law (US House of Representatives Internet Law Library), General Law, Canadian Law and Materials, and Other Sites of Interest (e.g., Better Business Bureau, Social Security Benefits, Internal Revenue Service).

Injustice Studies
URL: http://www.philosophy.ilstu.edu/philosophy/injustice/injustice.htm
Injustice Studies is a new international interdisciplinary journal that will be published electronically. Editors are currently soliciting articles; no issues have yet been published. They present a very thoughtful editorial policy at this site, reflecting academic interest in addressing the nature, politics, and moral psychology of global and local issues of cruelty and injustice. Subscriptions are free and can be arranged by contacting listserv@ilstu.edu with the message: subscribe injust-l yourlastname yourfirstname

International Law and Human Right Through the Doddel Server
URL: http://doddel.cs.unimaas.nl/~ingelse/pot.htm
Maintained by Massimo Magagni at Bologna University, this site collects the texts of treaties and other documents dealing with International Law, Human Rights, Prohibition of Torture, International Criminal Law, International Organizations, European Law, and Law (miscellaneous). Especially useful are the scads of links to the home pages of international organizations, including several affliated with the UN. This site is an excellent starting point for collecting specific documents dealing with International Law, as well as obtaining information from and about the bodies producing those documents.
