The Making of Modern Law (MOML): Foreign, Comparative and International Law includes pre-1926 treatises and similar monographs, sourced from the outstanding collections of the law libraries at Yale, George Washington University, and Columbia, in the following areas--International Law, Comparative Law, Foreign Law, Roman Law, Islamic Law, Jewish Law, Ancient Law--bringing them together in a single resource. The largest category, International Law, features works of some of the great legal theorists, including Gentili, Grotius, Selden, Zouche, Pufendorf, Bijnkershoek, Wolff, Vattel, Martens, Mackintosh, Wheaton, among others. Foreign Law features foreign legal treatises of a variety of countries. Because the term treatise is more of a common-law category, the equivalent works in civil-law systems may have other names such as commentaries, encyclopedias, textbooks, monographs, or festschriften. Comparative Law compares more than one legal system and includes Ancient, Roman, Jewish Law, and Islamic Law. Dozens of countries are covered in Foreign Law, the principal ones included are: Argentina, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland.
