An Ontological Approach to Legal Literature for Improving Legal Knowledge Dissemination

چکیده
357 Abstract – We present an ontological approach to the legal literature for translating sources of law into information accessible to people both with and without a legal education.

In this sense we show the roles of two legal ontologies: the LKIF-core Ontology and the Lex-is Ontology in improving the dissemination of legal knowledge.
