Book Synopsis Theory and Reality in the International Protection of Human Rights by : Watson
Download or read book Theory and Reality in the International Protection of Human Rights written by Watson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-06-26 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many theories and propositions have been advanced on the tacit assumption that international law encompasses the protection of human rights. Very few, if any, question the validity of this position. Here is a book that does. Theory and Reality in the International Protection of Human Rights presents a defense of the traditional theory of international law-based on a decentralized nation-state system of international relation—as being more appropriate for the analysis of its subject than more recent variants that allow for supranational redress at an increasingly personal level. In particular, Professor Watson shows how the proponents of the international human rights regime persistently use a legislative mode of reasoning, and how international law cannot sustain this technique. He holds that violation of the right to life is best adjudicated within a customary system, and concludes that the validity of the norms of international human rights has yet to be demonstrated. Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.
Book Synopsis Global Justice, Human Rights and the Modernization of International Law by : Riccardo Pisillo Mazzeschi
Download or read book Global Justice, Human Rights and the Modernization of International Law written by Riccardo Pisillo Mazzeschi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on the observation that international law is undergoing a process of change and modernization, driven by many factors, among which the affirmation and consolidation of the role of the individual and of the theory of human rights stand out. In the contemporary world, international law has demonstrated an ability to evolve rapidly. But it is still unclear whether its modernization process is also producing structural changes, which affect the subjects, the sources and even the very purpose of this law. Is it truly possible to speak of a paradigmatic and ideological change in the international legal system, one that also involves a transition from a state-centred international order to a human-centred one, and from inter-state justice to global justice?The book addresses three fundamental aspects of the modernization process of international law: the possible widening of the concept of international community and of the classic assumptions of statehood; the possible diversification of the sources of general international law; and the ability of international law to adapt to new challenges and to achieve the main goals for humanity set by the United Nations.The overall objective of the book is to provide the tools for a deeper understanding of the transition phase of contemporary international law, by examining the major problems that characterize this phase. The book will also stimulate critical reflection on the future prospects of international law.
Book Synopsis The Law of Occupation by : Yutuka Arai
Download or read book The Law of Occupation written by Yutuka Arai and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-04-24 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph analyses the historical evolution of the laws of occupation as a special branch of international humanitarian law (IHL), focusing on the extent to which this body of law has been transformed by its interaction with the development of international human rights law. It argues that a large part of the laws of occupation has proved to be malleable while being able to accommodate changing demands of civilians and any other persons affected by occupation in modern context. Its examinations have drawn much on archival research into the drafting documents of the instruments of IHL, including the aborted Brussels Declaration 1874, the 1899/1907 Hague Regulations, the 1949 Geneva Conventions and the 1977 Additional Protocol I. After assessing the complementary relationship between international human rights law and the laws of occupation, the book examines how to provide a coherent explanation for an emerging framework on the rights of individual persons affected by occupation. It engages in a theoretical appraisal of the role of customary IHL and the Martens clause in building up such a normative framework.

Book Synopsis Law-Making and Legitimacy in International Humanitarian Law by : Püschmann, Jonas
Download or read book Law-Making and Legitimacy in International Humanitarian Law written by Püschmann, Jonas and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Humanitarian Law (IHL) is in a state of some turbulence, as a result of, among other things, non-international armed conflicts, terrorist threats and the rise of new technologies. This incisive book observes that while states appear to be reluctant to act as agents of change, informal methods of law-making are flourishing. Illustrating that not only courts, but various non-state actors, push for legal developments, this timely work offers an insight into the causes of this somewhat ambivalent state of IHL by focusing attention on both the legitimacy of law-making processes and the actors involved.

Book Synopsis Non-Combatant Immunity as a Norm of International Humanitarian Law by : Judith Gail Gardam
Download or read book Non-Combatant Immunity as a Norm of International Humanitarian Law written by Judith Gail Gardam and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the advances made by the international community to outlaw the resort to force by the United Nations Charter, armed conflicts both international and non-international are a fact of every day life. The civilian casualties from such conflicts have assumed catastrophic proportions. Little attention, however, has been paid by scholars to the treatment of noncombatants in armed conflict and the place in international law of the principle fundamental to the law of armed conflict: noncombatant immunity. This work aims to remedy this omission. The author analyses in detail the content of the customary and conventional rules that give effect to this principle, in both international and non-international armed conflict. The importance of such a study is highlighted by the recent Gulf conflict where so many of the States were not bound by the most recent treaty rules protecting noncombatants.
