The international societies are the Association Internationale pour Ie Progres des Sciences Sociales and the Congres International de Statistiijue, which first met at Brussels in 1853. Both have issued Comptes Rendus. The Congres International de Bienfaisance may be traced to a suggestion at the Congres Pe.nilentiaire held at Frankfort in 1847. The first meeting took place at Brussels in 1850. The Rational Association for the Promotion of Social Science (1857) had united with it in 1864 the Society for Promoting the Amendment of the Law.
