As a non-political organization, the ICJ is dedicated to the support and advancement of those principles of justice which constitute the basis of the Rule of Law. Respect for fundamental human rights is one such principle.
Though legal studies were started in Southeast Asia many years ago, it must be admitted that a great deal has yet to be done to place legal studies on a sound academic footing and to consolidate the efforts of law teachers on an all-Southeast-Asian basis.
In the ten years since the ICJ was organized in 1952 it has become so well known in so many centers of legal culture throughout the free world – the high courts, university law faculties, practitioners, associations and institutes – that repetition of its origin, purpose and history is unnecessary.
This legal Journal is devoted to the administration of justice within different countries. It also strives to deepen understanding of and widen agreement on the principles of the rule of law in all countries.
Ce journal légal fournit de l’information sur l’administration de la justice dans différents pays.
