The ALF is the official blog platform of the Amsterdam Law Forum, part of the Faculty of Law at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. The mission of the blog is to inform and inspire readers by providing the latest insights and opinions on the international landscape from a legal perspective. The ALF Blog serves as a platform for critical and well-founded analysis and reflection, offering a space where contemporary legal developments can be examined in depth.
VU students, staff, and alumni are invited to contribute their in-depth analyses, reports, and opinions on pressing legal issues and thought-provoking questions related to international and transnational law. By encouraging scholarly discussions and diverse viewpoints, the blog aims to foster a broader understanding of legal challenges that transcend national borders.
ALF strongly believes in the power of sharing ideas and facilitating meaningful discussions as a way to contribute to both legal and social discourse. The blog is designed as a space where diverse perspectives harmoniously converge, creating an environment in which constructive dialogue can flourish. By engaging with multiple viewpoints, ALF seeks to promote a deeper understanding of the complexities of international law and its implications for society.
The ALF Blog is entirely managed, edited, and published by students from the Faculty of Law at VU, ensuring that it remains a dynamic and student-driven initiative. The blog actively encourages submissions from authors with diverse backgrounds, welcoming contributions that maintain a strong connection to current international events while incorporating a legal aspect. By providing a platform for academic discussion and legal reflection, the ALF Blog plays a vital role in shaping the ongoing conversation on international and transnational law.
