Book Synopsis The Relationship Between State and Individual Responsibility for International Crimes by : Béatrice I. Bonafè
Download or read book The Relationship Between State and Individual Responsibility for International Crimes written by Béatrice I. Bonafè and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a unique comparison between state and individual responsibility for international crimes and examines the theories that can explain the relationship between these two regimes. The study provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the relevant international practice from the standpoint of both international criminal law, and in particular the case law of international criminal tribunals, and state responsibility. The author shows the various connections and issues arising from the parallel establishment of state and individual responsibility for the commission of the same international crimes. These connections indicate a growing need to better co-ordinate these regimes of international responsibility. The author maintains that a general conception, according to which state and individual responsibility are two separate sets of secondary rules attached to the breach of the same primary norms, can help to solve the various issues relating to this dual responsibility. This conception of the complementarity between state and individual responsibility justifies co-ordination and consistent application of these two different regimes, each of which aims to foster compliance with the most important obligations owed to the international community as a whole.

Book Synopsis The Contractual Nature of the Optional Clause by : Gunnar Törber
Download or read book The Contractual Nature of the Optional Clause written by Gunnar Törber and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Law Commission's Guiding Principles for Unilateral Declarations and its Guide to Practice on Reservations to Treaties are among the recent developments in international law. These developments support a new assessment on how optional clauses (eg Article 62(1) of the American Convention on Human Rights) and especially the Optional Clause (Article 36(2) of the Statute of the International Court of Justice (ICJ)) can be characterised and treated. The question is in how far optional clauses and the respective declarations can be considered a multilateral treaty or a bundle of unilateral declarations and to what extent one of the corresponding regimes applies. Based, inter alia, on the jurisprudence of the Permanent Court of International Justice and the ICJ on the Optional Clause, but also on the relevant jurisprudence of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and the European Court of Human Rights and the General Comments of the United Nations Human Rights Committee, this book provides a comprehensive assessment of all legal issues regarding the Optional Clause and also optional clauses in general. The book deals with the making of Optional Clause declarations, the interpretation of such declarations and reservations made to the declarations as well as the withdrawal or amendment of declarations.

Book Synopsis Promoting Peace Through International Law by : Cecilia Marcela Bailliet
Download or read book Promoting Peace Through International Law written by Cecilia Marcela Bailliet and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within international law there is no unified concept of peace. This book addresses this gap by considering the liberal conception of peace within Western philosophy alongside the principle of 'peaceful coexistence' supported in the East. By tracing the evolution of the international law of peace through its historical and philosophical origins, this book investigates whether there is a 'right to peace'. The book explores how existing international law and institutions contribute to the establishment of peace, or how they fail to do so. It sets out how international law promotes the negative dimension of peace-the absence of violence-as well as its positive dimension: the presence of underlying conditions for peace. It also investigates whether international actors and institutions have particular obligations in relation to the establishment and maintenance of peace. Discussions include: the relationships between the different regimes of human rights, trade, development, the environment, and regulation of arms trade with peace; the role of women, refugees, and other groups seeking equal treatment; the role of peacekeepers, transitional justice mechanisms, international courts fact-finding missions, and national constitutional frameworks in upholding peace in practice; and how civil society participates in the promotion and safeguarding of peace. The book's comprehensive treatment of the concept of peace in international law makes it an ideal reference work for those working in the field, as well as for students.

Book excerpt: This is the Twelfth volume of the Hague Yearbook of International Law, which succeeds the Yearbook of the Association of Attenders and Alumni of the Hague Academy of International Law.

This volume contains in-depth articles on these developments (in English and French) and summaries of (aspects of) decisions rendered by the International Court of Justice, the Permanent Court of Arbitration and the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal, and the Hague Conference on Private International Law.
Book Synopsis Great Powers and Outlaw States by : Gerry Simpson
Download or read book Great Powers and Outlaw States written by Gerry Simpson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-04-22 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presence of Great Powers and outlaw states is a central but under-explored feature of international society. In this book, Gerry Simpson describes the ways in which an international legal order based on 'sovereign equality' has accommodated the Great Powers and regulated outlaw states since the beginning of the nineteenth-century. In doing so, the author offers a fresh understanding of sovereignty which he terms juridical sovereignty to show how international law has managed the interplay of three languages: the languages of Great Power prerogative, the language of outlawry (or anti-pluralism) and the language of sovereign equality. The co-existence and interaction of these three languages is traced through a number of moments of institutional transformation in the global order from the Congress of Vienna to the 'war on terrorism'.

Book Synopsis Customary International Law on the Use of Force by : Enzo Cannizzaro
Download or read book Customary International Law on the Use of Force written by Enzo Cannizzaro and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2005-11-01 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comes out at a time of grave uncertainty about the content and the very existence of international legal restraints on the use of force, in the international community as well as among legal scholars. The time is therefore ripe for an in-depth analysis on the methodological issues which constitute the basic bricks on which the legal discourse about the state of the law must be built. By offering the result of an open and frank discussion about the methodology of determining the law on the use of force "at a time of perplexity", this timely book constitutes an invaluable contribution to legal analysis.

Book Synopsis United States Hegemony and the Foundations of International Law by : Michael Byers
Download or read book United States Hegemony and the Foundations of International Law written by Michael Byers and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-05-29 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successive hegemonic powers have shaped the foundations of international law. This book examines whether the predominance of the United States is leading to foundational change in the international legal system. A range of leading scholars in international law and international relations consider six foundational areas that could be undergoing change, including international community, sovereign equality, the law governing the use of force, and compliance. The authors demonstrate that the effects of US predominance on the foundations of international law are real, but also intensely complex. This complexity is due, in part, to a multitude of actors exercising influential roles. And it is also due to the continued vitality and remaining functionality of the international legal system itself. This system limits the influence of individual states, while stretching and bending in response to the changing geopolitics of our time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of articles, primarily on the law of the sea, by Judge Shigeru Oda, who has served three successive terms of office on the Bench of the International Court of Justice, for an unprecedented 27-year tenure as Judge. A pioneer in the field of the law of the sea in the early post-war period, Judge Oda has maintained an interest in his chosen field and this collection of his works, produced over a period beginning in 1955 and spanning nearly half a century, sheds light on the rapid development of the law of the sea during this period. Those interested in understanding the law of the sea as it now stands must also understand the process by which the law has evolved since the 1950s. This book also contains a special section of Judge Oda's writings on the International Court of Justice. These chapters are aimed at elucidating the procedure of the Court.
Download or read book International Law written by Jan Wouters and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 1135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook offers for the first time a comprehensive analysis of the classic doctrines and main areas of international law from a European perspective, meeting the needs of the many European law schools teaching public international law in English. Special attention is devoted to the practice of the European Union, the Council of Europe and European States – both civil law and common law countries – with regard to international law. In particular the book analyses the interplay between international law, EU law and national law in the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU, the European Court of Human Rights and national jurisdictions in Europe. It provides the reader with insights into how the international legal practice of the EU and its Member States impacts the development of international law, both in terms of doctrines such as treaty-making and customary law, the exercise of (extraterritorial) jurisdiction, state responsibility and the settlement of disputes, as well as particular sub-fields of international law, such as human rights law and international economic law. In addition the book covers other important areas such as the use of force and collective security, the law of armed conflict, and global and regional international organisations. It provides European perspectives on all these issues and will be of great value to students, scholars and practitioners.
