The series raises the level of public and scholarly discussion about the structure and purposes of the world legal order and how best to achieve global justice through law. this series grows out of the International Legal Theory project of the American Society of International Law. The ASIL Studies in International Legal Theory deepen this conversation by publishing scholarly monographs and edited volumes of essays considering subjects in international legal theory.

EACLE

The European-American Consortium for Legal Education (EACLE), founded in 2000, educates future educators and lawyers for transnational challenges, by giving them transnational experiences as part of their legal studies. Five European and five United States law schools are in partnership to exchange students, faculty, scholarship, and experience, so that law students will have a broader understanding of the interrelated legal world in which they will practice their profession. The ten partners are American University, the University of Baltimore, Erasmus University Rotterdam, the University of Georgia, the University of Ghent, Helsinki University, Hofstra University, the University of Parma, Santa Clara University and Warsaw University.

The primary activities of the EACLE consortium have been:

• the exchange of faculty every fall for week- or semester-long visits;
• the exchange of students during the spring semester;
• an annual conference in May; and
• the publication of the conference proceedings the following fall.

Each year different European and American schools are paired, following a three-year scheduled rotation, to make the primary exchanges of one faculty member and two students. Other exchanges take place each year by agreement between the schools involved.

The consortium is currently inactive.
