Today I learnt about the Oxford Reports on International Law,
also known as ORIL. It is an Oxford University Press subscription database,
which “brings together decisions on public international law from international
law courts, domestic courts and ad-hoc tribunals”. New cases are added daily, and
it claims to be the most up-to-date source of international case law available.
As well as providing the full-text decisions, each case
report also includes expert analysis and a summary of the key facts. English
translations of the key passages of non-English decisions are also provided.
ORIL consists of five modules:
- International Courts of General Jurisdiction
- International Criminal Law
- International Human Rights Law
- International Investment Claims
- International Law in Domestic Courts
You can browse or run a simple or advanced search. Subject
headings and keywords are provided in the thesaurus. Entries are also linked
directly to the Oxford Law Citator, allowing researchers to find other relevant
cases and primary materials.
