I am a scholar looking for translation (French to English) and research assistance with a 155 page legal-historical document. The document was written by a French international jurist in 1930 and deals with human rights issues. It is dense, academic, legal prose, but interesting subject matter.
The job requires fluent knowledge French, excellent translation skills, and proven academic research skills. Legal and/or historical research experience is particularly valuable.
The job includes: (1) reading the document, (2) identifying only those paragraphs that are relevant to a few specific issues that I am researching, and (3) translating only these relevant paragraphs into English. The translation needs to be meticulous.
The work needs to be done on a short timeline, so I am looking for a person that can invest many hours in the next few weeks. If the relationship is successful, there are other texts with which I will need help.
If you are interested, please send:
(1) CV
(2) Detailed description of your fluency and background in the French language
(3) Detailed description of your academic research experience
(4) A translation of the attached short paragraph for my review. This paragraph also gives a sense of the nature of the French document.
Thank you for your interest!
1. - Le rôle du domicile dans le règlement des conflits de lois est, à coup sûr, un des problèmes les plus fondamentaux et les plus passionnément discutés du droit international privé. Il donne lieu en législation, suivant les époques ou suivant les pays, à des solutions très profondément divergentes. D'autre part, il a suscité une littératuTe à la fois si remarquable et si abondante, qu'il peut paraître bien prétentieux
d'en vouloir reprendre l'étude dans une monographie de proportions modestes et de contenu fatalement insuffisant. On ne saurait toutefois s'étonner qu'un tel sujet fût compris parmi ceux d'actualité traités à l'Académie de Droit international de La Haye. Ce centre de hautes études, créé « pour l'examen approfondi et impartial des questions se rattachant aux rapports juridiques internationaux », ne se
borne pas à continuer des efforts séculaires, mais trop souvent divergents. Le grand bouleversement provoqué par laguerre de 1944-1919 .impose à tous une tâche de reconstruction méthodique. Il faut, en s'inspirant des expériences anciennes, mais aussi des besoins présents et des formes d'organisation
nouvelles, vérifier la solidité des préceptes juridiques traditionnels, et soumettre à de nouvelles épreuves de résistance les assises sur lesquelles repose le droit international en général, spécialement le droit international privé
EXPERIENCE, DILIGENCE, INTEGRITY.

Hello,
first of all, I'd like to greet you and wish you good inspiration and performance on your legal work.
My name is Ivan. I am a former Customs officer who now is engaged in the translation, editing and sometimes research on this site and on some others. I read your project description and I think that I can help you with that. The reasons of my statement are the following:
(1) I am a very good translator. I have been working with bilingual texts for about 5 years. I translated while holding my position at the Customs administration and I do it daily now. I am very fluent in English and have received a great experience and known many useful techniques so far. I continue to learn new things about the industry by attending various seminars, webinars and alike. Due to my professional career I introduce my knowledge of law and taxes to my translations. I specialize exactly in legal, business, foreign trade, economic texts.
(2) I am very fluent in French. En tant qu'un traducteur, je traduis généralement de français vers le russe, ma langue maternelle, ou l'anglais. Fort de l'experience de 8 ans d'un titulaire dans la douane de Zaporojié, je préfére des textes dans le domaine légale et économique. J'ai été en France en 2011 pour le stage douanier.
(3) I wrote several thesis at the University, one of which for the Master's degree was about the Customs law. I contributed to some research projects as a freelancer. I like to scrutinize facts and texts and that quality will do...
I am a legal scholar and researcher currently studying for a Ph.D. in International Law (my topic will look at terrorism and Human rights). I carried out my legal studies both in English and French which are the official languages of my country. I am well versed with legal terms and research norms which will enable me effectively complete the task within the stated deadlines and being also a holder of an LL.M in International Law (studied HR too), you will find satisfaction with my work.
The role played by the domicile in the resolution of conflicts of law is, undoubtedly, one of the most fundamental problems and most passionately debated in private international law.
This has resulted is legislation which, depending on the era or country, offers widely divergent solutions.
On the other hand, it has developed such a remarkable and abundant literature, that it may seem superfluous to want to review the study in a monograph of modest proportions and fatally insufficient content.
However, it is not surprising that such a subject was included amongst current issues examined at the Academy of International Law in The Hague.
This Centre for Advanced Studies, created "for thorough and impartial review of issues related to international legal relations" does
not merely to continue the secular efforts, but more often than not offers a divergent view.
The great upheaval causes by the 1944-1919 war impose upon all, a methodical task of reconstruction.
It is thus necessary, not o
