Global Community: Yearbook of International Law and Jurisprudence includes both substantive articles on international law issues, decisions of international courts and tribunals (such as the International Court of Justice, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, the World Trade Organization and the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia), and a section on the contemporary practice of international law.

Hague Yearbook of International Law = Annuaire de La Haye de Droit International contains articles on international law issues and a section on the activities of international law institutions at the Hague ( International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and the Permanent Court of Arbitration, etc.).
