HLS Dissertations, Theses, and JD Papers

S.j.d. dissertations, ll.m. papers, ll.m. theses, j.d. papers, submitting your paper to an online collection, other sources for student papers beyond harvard, getting help, introduction.

This is a guide to finding Harvard Law School (“HLS”) student-authored works held by the Library and in online collections. This guide covers HLS S.J.D Dissertations, LL.M. papers, J.D. third-year papers, seminar papers, and prize papers.

There have been changes in the HLS degree requirements for written work. The library’s collection practices and catalog descriptions for these works has varied. Please note that there are gaps in the library’s collection and for J.D. papers, few of these works are being collected any longer.

If we have an S.J.D. dissertation or LL.M. thesis, we have two copies. One is kept in the general collection and one in the Red Set, an archival collection of works authored by HLS affiliates. If we have a J.D. paper, we have only one copy, kept in the Red Set. Red Set copies are last resort copies available only by advance appointment in Historical and Special Collections .

Some papers have not been processed by library staff. If HOLLIS indicates a paper is “ordered-received” please use this form to have library processing completed.

The HLS Doctor of Juridical Science (“S.J.D.”) program began in 1910.  The library collection of these works is not comprehensive. Exceptions are usually due to scholars’ requests to withhold Library deposit.

  • DASH Digital Access to Scholarship at Harvard Sponsored by Harvard University’s Office for Scholarly Communication, DASH is an open repository for research papers by members of the Harvard community. There are currently about 600 HLS student papers included. Unfortunately it is not possible to search by type of paper or degree awarded.

The Master of Laws (“LL.M.”) degree has been awarded since 1923. Originally, the degree required completion of a major research paper, akin to a thesis. Since 1993, most students have the option of writing the LL.M. "short paper."  This is a 25-page (or longer) paper advised by a faculty supervisor or completed in conjunction with a seminar.  Fewer LL.M. candidates continue to write the more extensive "long-paper." LL.M. candidates holding J.D.s from the U.S. must write the long paper.

  • HLS Written Work Requirements for LL.M. Degree The current explanation of the LL.M. written work requirement for the master of laws.

The library generally holds HLS LL.M. long papers and short papers. In recent years, we require author release in order to do so. In HOLLIS, no distinction is made between types of written work created in satisfaction of the LL.M. degree; all are described as LL.M. thesis. Though we describe them as thesis, the law school refers to them solely as papers or in earlier years, essays. HOLLIS records indicate the number of pages, so at the record level, it is possible to distinguish long papers.

  • HLS LL.M. Papers in HOLLIS To refine these search results by topic, faculty advisor, seminar or date, click Add a New Line.

Note that beginning with papers from the 2023-24 academic year, papers will be available in digital format only. The workflow for this new process is underway.

HLS LL.M. Papers are sometimes available in DASH and Hein's Legal Dissertations and Theses. See descriptions above .

The HLS J.D. written work requirement has changed over time. The degree formerly required a substantial research paper comparable in scope to a law review article written under faculty supervision, the "third year paper." Since 2008, J.D. students have the option of using two shorter works instead.

Of all those written, the library holds relatively few third-year papers. They were not actively collected but accepted by submission from faculty advisors who deemed a paper worthy of institutional retention. The papers are described in HOLLIS as third year papers, seminar papers, and student papers. Sometimes this distinction was valid, but not always. The faculty deposit tradition more or less ended in 2006, though the possibility of deposit still exists.

Prize Papers

HLS has many endowed prizes for student papers and essays. There are currently 16 different writing prizes. See this complete descriptive list with links to lists of winners from 2009 to present. Note that there is not always a winner each year for each award. Prize winners are announced each year in the commencement pamphlet.

The Library has not specifically collected prize papers over the years but has added copies when possible. The HOLLIS record for the paper will usually indicate its status as a prize paper. The most recent prize paper was added to the collection in 2006.

Stanford Law School's Theses and Dissertations Collection

  • Early Thesis and Dissertation of Stanford Law School, 1929 to 1956
  • Theses and Dissertations of Stanford Law School,1970-1995
  • Stanford Program in International Legal Studies’ Theses, 1996 to 2010

Collection Description

This collection contains Stanford Law School Students’ theses and dissertations written to fulfill the academic requirements for advanced degrees.   Historically, the collection of Theses and Dissertations were produced as part of the requirement coursework for receiving a Master of Laws (1933-1969), a Juris Doctor (1906-1932), or a Doctor of Jurisprudence.  

Currently, works received from students are produced under two different graduate programs.  Thesis are works were produced as part of the requirement for the Stanford Program in International Legal Studies (SPILS). SPILS was established in 1995 by Professors Lawrence Friedman and Thomas C. Heller, to educate international students, lawyers, judges, public officials, and other professionals trained in the study of law outside the United States.  Students in the SPILS Program are required to do interdisciplinary research that affects the global community.  The culmination of this program is a research project that each individual student develops over the course of the year under a faculty advisor, after which the earns a Master of the Science of Law degree.  The research project must demonstrate the student's ability to employ empirical methods of investigation and must addresses issues in the international community or within a specific country.  These can cover a large range of topics that analyze legal cultures, legal reforms, or public policy.  

Dissertations are produced under Doctor of Science of Law program or JSD.  The JSD program as we know it was revised for the Doctor of Jurisprudence in 1969 is designed for students who are interested in pursuing an academic career. Doctor of Science of Law Students are selected from the Stanford Program in International Legal Studies and those who have a postgraduate degree in Legal Studies.

All materials in this collection were donated by individual authors to the Stanford Law Library's Special Collections.

LLM Dissertation Writing

Choosing the topic

Five key considerations when choosing your dissertation topic are:

  • Why are you studying an LLM in thr first place?
  • Which modules have you enjoyed the most?
  • Which areas of the law have a good support base at your institution?
  • What are the strengths of your law library?
  • Is your potential topic a wide enough question?

Obviously, choosing a topic is a necessary stage to get underway before you can start researching and writing your dissertation. You should spend time carefully considering the subject of your dissertation as it might end up being the clincher for that  first job  after you finish your studies. Make sure you pick a topic that you find interesting, but that also has the balance of support from your lecturers and professors.

You'll need to be uniquely motivated to produce a dissertation about a subject that none of your lectures or professors knows much about. Understanding why you have picked the particular subject will ensure you're choosing the right topic, but don't spend too much time considering what to do as you'll need to get on with it. 

Dissertation support

You will have plenty of dissertation support organised through your law school. Some of it might be compulsory sessions that you must undertake as part of your LLM program, while others may be support sessions that can help you stay focused throughout your dissertation work.

Make sure you attend these sessions and don’t hesitate to ask questions if in doubt. It might be a good idea to share your dissertation structure with tutors or designated academic contacts that can give you feedback on your progress. Law school libraries usually have  books  that tell you how best to prepare for your dissertation. Keep an eye out for skills sessions on writing or research methods. These will prove useful when you get down to drafting content for your dissertation and will enable you to put to practice acquired skills that you picked up during these sessions.

Planning and organisation

Some people love creating a filing system and hopefully, you're one of them as this is a great way to organise your LLM dissertation. You'll need to keep your research well organised to enable you to quickly access it when you are writing your dissertation. It's a good idea to have research divided into chapters early on.

It's a good idea to follow a file management procedure to save your dissertation material. This material could consist of both printed (photocopies from the library or print-outs of research articles) and online documents. Try to follow a consistent labelling/naming convention so that you can locate documents quickly. For instance, if you have a vast number of online articles and research papers to go through, then categorise them in such a way that they fall under relevant chapters of your dissertation.

Any research you do online will need to be backed up, and of course, you will have the dissertation itself backed up too. Do not have everything saved on one ancient laptop, instead build in a routine for how you save and backup your data daily so it just becomes part of how you work. If you start as early as you can on your dissertation, then you'll be able to build in planning time and create a realistic timetable for your work, with escapes from your dissertation to let you reflect on what you have done so far. 

LLM dissertation

Researching

There is no easy or quick way around this, you are just going to have to get going with the research as soon as possible. Remember that law libraries get busy during the second semester so you'll need to get there early in the mornings or stay late sometimes.

You also don't want to wait around for particular texts that have a limited availability. If you realise you need a book that someone else has checked-out of the library, then let the staff know as soon as you know so you have a chance of getting it. Don't forget about online law libraries and resources too, and speak with your academic staff if you are really struggling to access what you need. 

Don't wait until you think you've done all the researching before you start writing up your findings. Writing up an LLM dissertation takes time and thought. Start writing as soon as you start researching and keep planning the chapters of your dissertation as you delve deeper into the research. With a bit of luck and good planning, you will find that the chapters are easy to write. 

Editing and formatting

Find out before you write a single word what format your dissertation needs to be in for printing and submission. Your law school will likely have their own standards, so you should familiarise yourself with this document before you get started. Establish the right format straight away so you are not spending time at the last minute changing formats or the way you have referenced the whole document.

Don't underestimate how long it will take to edit your dissertation – expect to read through each chapter many times as each read through will show you new and interesting mistakes. And if possible, find a willing friend or family member to give it a final read – fresh eyes are likely to pick up small typos or mistakes.  

Printing and submitting

Aim to finish your LLM dissertation with a little time to spare. Towards submission deadlines, university printers are busy places and if you need to print your dissertation at a particular printer then check with them early on to understand how much time they need to get your document ready. You need time for them to print it and time for you to check the printed material as you need to check for formatting errors or any printing mistakes like double pages.  Once you've written your dissertation you can take a calm walk into your submissions office and hand over your dissertation. Obviously, everything went to plan and you've finished your dissertation with time to spare and now it's time to  relax a little .

  • Is the English maintenance of the “internal management” model failing to bring company law in the 21st Century?

The word Tort comes from the Latin term torture which means “Wrong”. In simple terms, Tort Law is supposed to address the civil wrongs done to a person, accidentally or incidentally. The victim/injured/aggrieved party is provided with compensation for the damages.

This area of law is one of the most important aspects of law study as it demonstrates the circumstances through which an individual is held accountable for another party’s injury either done intentionally or omissions or even by accident. Listed below are some topics for a Tort Law Dissertation to make it easier for you to draft an effective dissertation:

  • Importance of foreseeability and policy in establishing a duty of care
  • Analysis of the rules regarding the recovery of economic losses in tortious actions
  • When it comes to matters of occupiers’ liability under the Occupiers Liability Acts of 1957 and 1984 respectively, when is a trespasser, not a trespasser?
  • Wrongful Restraint of a man’s Liberty: Meaning, Defense and Remedy
  • Why might the duty of care afforded to children be considered to be a step too far regarding the recognition of tortious liability?

Build an LLM Application using LangChain

By: Levi Masonde   |   Updated: 2024-09-02   |   Comments   |   Related: More > Artificial Intelligence

You are a software developer witnessing the AI revolution, just like everyone. Most developers are at a crossroads: do you join the revolution or hope it's a phase that won't affect you and your work in the long run? With the introduction of new technologies like ChatGPT4o and all the industry-leading companies having AI incorporated into their businesses, it is safe to admit that we have reached a point of no return, and AI will only increase in popularity and influence in all businesses.

So, how do you get involved with AI as a developer? Where do you start?

Natural language AIs like ChatGPT4o are powered by Large Language Models (LLMs). You can look at the overview of this topic in my previous article . As much as theory and reading about concepts as a developer is important, learning concepts is much more effective when you get your hands dirty doing practical work with new technologies.

In this tutorial, we will build an LLM application using LangChain to show you how to start implementing AI in your applications. We will create a question-answer chatbot using the retrieval augmented generation (RAG) and web-scrapping techniques.

Prerequisites

  • Visual Studio Code

What are LLMs?

LLMs are natural language machine learning models built using neural networks pre-trained with trillions of tokens (text data). LLMs split sentences into tokens, or groups of characters, before sending the prompt to the model using a tokenization method. You can learn more about LLMs in this article: Large Language Models (LLMs) to train artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT .

What is LangChain and How It Works

LLMs, by default, have been trained on a great number of topics and information based on the internet's historical data. If you want to build an AI application that uses private data or data made available after the AI's cutoff time, you must feed the AI model the relevant data. The process of bringing and inserting the appropriate information into the model prompt is known as retrieval augmented generation (RAG). We will use this technique to enhance our AI Q&A later in this tutorial.

LangChain is a Python framework built to enable developers to feed custom data to LLMs and to interact with LLMs in the following ways:

  • Chains : Creates a chain of operations within a workflow. LangChain enables you to link actions like calling APIs, querying multiple LLMs, or storing data into one operation.
  • Agents : Makes decisions based on the output of the LLM.
  • Memory : Maintains the state and history of context across different interactions.
  • Indexes : Uses tools that manage and create indexes to be queried by LLMS using vector stores.
  • Retrievers : Fetches relevant information from various sources, such as databases, APIs, document collections, or retrieval augmented generation, based on queries generated by LLMs.

Text Embedding Models and Vector Stores

Text embedding is a way to represent pieces of text using arrays of numbers. This transformation is essential for Natural Language Processing because computers understand numeric representation better than raw text. Once the text is transformed, it exists on a specific coordinate in a vector space where similar texts are stored close to each other.

Vector stores are responsible for storing vectors and running vector searches for you. First, you must get data from your source and embed it into a vector store. When you want to send a query, the query is embedded and then the vector store searches for similar vectors from the vector store, sending the results back as the answer:

Vector stores

Source: https://python.langchain.com/v0.1/docs/modules/data_connection/vectorstores/

Large Language Model Providers

Different LLM providers in the market mainly focus on bridging the gap between established LLMs and your custom data to create AI solutions specific to your needs. Essentially, you can train your model without starting from scratch, building an entire LLM model. You can use licensed models, like OpenAI, that give you access to their APIs or open-source models, like GPT-Neo, which give you the full code to access an LLM.

Creating an LLM Application

In this section, you will create the base for a Q&A application. This is when you send a question to the LLM and get an answer. As discussed earlier, you can use the RAG technique to enhance your answers from your LLM by feeding it custom data.

First, you must install LangChain on your environment. To do this, open your terminal on Visual Studio Code and run this pip command:

Next, use the following pip command for the dotenv module:

Then, create a .env file and add the following code:

Keep in mind that you might have to add your API keys to your system's environment variables.

Then create a new file named LLM_App.py and add the following code to check if your environment can pick up your variables:

When running this code, you should see this output:

Variable pickup output

Then, let's add Cohere as our LLM provider. Login to Cohere, use the default API key, and add it to your .env file:

Cohere

Once done, install the LangChain Cohere using this pip command:

Let's start writing code for a Q&A application with no custom external data. Using the default RAG class on your LLM_app.py file, add the following code:

This will provide an answer to be displayed on your terminal:

RAG query response

The results seem great. But, if we run the function again, these are the results:

RAG query response

As you can see, the results are now different and incorrect this time. Unfortunately, nobody can technically explain why this happens. It is all part of AI “hallucination.”

One way of increasing the accuracy of your LLM search results is by setting the temperature parameter to 0 when declaring your LLM on the LLM_app.py file. This is on line 55:

This ensures that your results do not change too much when re-run.

Using Web Scrappers with LLMs

Another way of increasing the accuracy of your LLM search results is by declaring your custom data sources. This way, your LLM can answer questions based mainly on your provided data source. Using a tool like Apify, you can create an automated web-scrapping function that can be integrated with your LLM application. This will enable you to choose a web data source for your LLM queries.

To avoid mixing the two codes prematurely, create another Python file named ApifyQA_app.py and add the following code:

Running this query, which is the same query we ran on the previous script, you get this result:

web scrap LLM query results

This is a result that reflects the website's content:

MSSQLTips website

As you can see, the results are heavily influenced by the data source we feed our LLM.

This tutorial covers an LLM that uses a default RAG technique to get data from the web, which gives it more general knowledge but not precise knowledge and is prone to hallucinations. We also covered web-scrapping retrievers added to an LLM. This ensures that the LLM outputs have controlled and precise content.

LLMs played a huge role in pushing AI to the spotlight, especially today, as most companies want to eventually have custom AI systems. Starting an AI system from scratch can only be done by companies with huge pockets; most will have to settle for existing LLM models and customize them to their organization's requirements.

This tutorial teaches you the basic concepts of how LLM applications are built using pre-existing LLM models and Python's LangChain module and how to feed the application your custom web data.
