The Global Legal Monitor (GLM) had a great 2014. One of the Law Library of Congress premier online sources, the GLM published 431 articles in 2014 covering legal developments around the world, particularly parliamentary acts and court decisions on a variety of issues.
When writing for the Global Legal Monitor, we try to focus on issues that we believe will interest our readers. One of the ways to gauge this is by looking at which GLM articles attract the most traffic. By this standard, our readers have a wide range of interests both in terms of geography and areas of law.
