Welcome to The Vindobona Journal of International Commercial Law and Arbitration's official website.


The Vindobona Journal (VJ) is a bi-annual law journal published under the auspices of the Moot Alumni Association (MAA). Founded in 1996, the Moot Alumni Association originates from the Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot as a community of participants of this competition. Today, its members include lawyers, judges and professors, national and international civil servants, managers and consultants, as well as young professionals and students striving for a career in these professions.

Backed by a distinguished Board of Advisers comprised of eminent academics and practitioners, the Vindobona Journal focuses on current issues in international commercial law and arbitration.
