Minnesota Journal of International Law

Volume 15 of the Minnesota Journal of International Law marked an important transition for the journal. After fourteen years as the Minnesota Journal of Global Trade, the journal broadened its scope in recognition of the changes in the world legal system, and the increased blurring of the line between trade law and other international legal disciplines.

First proposed by a group of University of Minnesota law students led by Founding Editor Daniel L. M. Kennedy, the Minnesota Journal of Global Trade developed as a joint effort between these students and various members of the law faculty who were keenly interested in the analysis of the legal issues involved in international trade. The Minnesota Journal of International Law maintains that tradition, and continues to welcome and publish articles on issues relating to global trade, as well as articles covering other areas of international law.
