Researching Treaties and International Agreements
|
Often treaties and agreements are referred to by popular names which can cause some frustration for the researcher trying to locate them in indexes and finding tools. Some of these sources may be helpful in deciphering the official name of the document. Shepard's Acts and Cases by Popular Name (Colorado Springs: Shepard's/McGraw Hill, 1968-) [KF90 .S54]. Treaties and Other International Agreements of the United States of America, 1776-1949 (Bevans, ed., Washington, DC: U.S.G.P.O., 1968-1976) [KJ186.U58t B571]. Periodicals (full-text and indexes), such as International Legal Materials (Washington, DC: American Society of International Law, 1962-). Avalon Project: Alphabetical Title List. Osmanczyk, Encyclopedia of the United Nations and International Agreements (3rd ed., New York : Routledge, 2003) [On order]. The index in volume 4 includes many popular names and acronyms. Using a search engine on the Web, such as google, can often provide clues to the complete names of treaties. |
