ALST Archive

Activities

Editor: Sara Azzini

The Multilanguage Archive on the Law of Science and New Technologies – ALST- (IBLARC in the past) has been created by the Interdepartmental Research Centre ECLT, University of Pavia, I (President, Dr. Amedeo Santosuosso), in cooperation with the European Network for Life Sciences, Health and the Courts (ENLSC). Its realization is the result of great cooperation with partners in many different countries. The basic idea of the ALST stems from a way of looking at the present state of law sources at both national and supranational level, which is affected by the trans-national flow of legal standards and the new shape of the law-making process. Although the problem is more or less common to all types of law, the field of law and life sciences is one of the most troubled areas.

 

Although cases and materials on science and law are normally available on the main international websites, they tend to be spread around many different sites. What is more, each legal case is usually accessible only as an individual case in its own language. Thus, the International Archive ALST aims to bring together cases and materials (cases, laws, regulations, the main scientific and legal literature, the rationale of scientific projects and so on), and to organize and make them easily accessible to Courts, scientists, jurists, regulators, firms and citizens. The Archive will bring together the most relevant Cases and Materials. Each of them is considered to be a piece of law and can be immediately linked with similar pieces from different countries, sources and languages.
