Welcome to the inaugural issue of The Global Trade Law Journal!

Several months ago, vLex and Fastcase, two of the largest, fastest-growing legal technology companies, merged to form the world's largest law firm subscriber base with more than one billion legal documents from more than 100 countries.

Shortly after, they approached my partner, Steven Meyerowitz, and me to discuss developing a global trade law journal, reflecting the growing need for high-level, authoritative trade law information.

We are very excited to launch The Global Trade Law Journal, adding to the two preeminent journals we currently edit for Fastcase and vLex; The Journal of Robotics, Artificial Intelligence & Law and The Journal of Federal Agency Action.

Our Mission

The Global Trade Law Journal, which publishes six times per year, covers topics of interest to international attorneys and law firms, in-house counsel, corporate compliance officers, government agencies and their counsel, senior business executives, and others interested in global trade law.

The Global Trade Law Journal is a subscription journal that explores and analyzes the most significant trade developments taking place in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, Latin America, Asia, and elsewhere around the world.

The Global Trade Law Journal examines developments in international trade regulation, including the business, economic, and social implications of the expanding trade field. The international trade topics we cover include—but certainly are not limited to—the following:

■ Treaties
