As a part of the institute program that has been inaugurated with the encouraging support not merely of the Faculty of the Law School but also of many interested members of the bar - a program designed to supplement the ordinary course of legal studies through the exploration of "frontiers of the law" in lectures and discussions delivered or led by distinguished scholars and outstanding practitioners, to which the students in attendance at the School and the members of the profession are freely invited to participate - the Institute held in conjunction with the Summer Session of 1949 was devoted to an area of wide and increasing importance, the current developments of the laws affecting international trade.
Published under the auspices of the University of Michigan Law School (which, however, assumes no responsibility for the views expressed) with the aid of funds derived from gifts to the University of Michigan by William W. Cook.
