The Institute focuses its resources on generating new knowledge in international law, European Union law and comparative public law. It hopes to contribute to the further globalization of the discourse in these fields. It also seeks an intensification of exchanges with researchers and its cooperation partners as well as a dialogue with an audience beyond the immediate scholarly community in its areas of research. The Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law (MPIL) Research Paper Series aims to make new scholarly work by the Institute's research staff or scholars closely associated with the Institute available in a timely and un-bureaucratic manner, cost-free and to as wide an audience as possible. Through the series, the MPIL hopes to facilitate more intense scholarly communication and to encourage increased publication as well as the circulation of new research. Papers in the series consist of work that has either been submitted for publication to a recognized professional journal (pre-prints) or accepted by such a journal, but not yet published (post-prints). They can be downloaded from the MPIL's own website (http://www.mpil.de/de/pub/publikationen/mpil-research-paper-series.cfm) as well as from the Social Science Research Network's online platform (http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/JELJOUR_Results.cfm?form_name=journalbrowse&journal_id=2765113).
