Journal of Comparative Law

Journal of Comparative Law is a continuation of “Legal Nameh” and “Nameh Mofid”, which have been continuously published by Mofid University since April 1995. Since the beginning of 1995, the Journal of Nameh Mofid, as the first and only academic scientific research journal published in the holy city of Qom started to publish scholarly articles in various fields of human sciences, especially economic, philosophical, legal, Quranic, and political sciences, for eleven years. Since 2004 following the qualitative growth of the country's scientific community and the specialization of academic journals, Nameh Mofid also limited its activity to only three fields, “Philosophical Nameh”, “Economic Nameh” and “Legal Nameh” semi-annually.

Based on the new policy of the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology and the specialization of academic journals, it was approved that each journal should only work on one subject, and also limit its scope of activity to specific areas in that field. In addition, according to the aforementioned policies, academic journals were requested to change their names accordingly.

In accordance with these policies, since the beginning of 2013, Nameh Mofid has been published with the more specialized titles of "Existence and Knowledge", "Economic Policies" and "Comparative Law" instead of the three mentioned titles. Therefore, "Comparative Law" is actually the new nameh of a journal that was previously known as "Legal Nameh”.

We thank the great God for giving us the opportunity to serve the scientific community of the country without interruption. Although back-breaking problems and hardships are always an obstacle to the publication of academic journals. These problems are such that few academic journals stand and are published for many years. With the help of Almighty God, we leave the heart to continue.
