Book Synopsis The Hidden History of International Law in the Americas by : Dr. Juan Pablo Scarfi
Download or read book The Hidden History of International Law in the Americas written by Dr. Juan Pablo Scarfi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International law has played a crucial role in the construction of imperial projects. Yet within the growing field of studies about the history of international law and empire, scholars have seldom considered this complicit relationship in the Americas. The Hidden History of International Law in the Americas offers the first exploration of the deployment of international law for the legitimization of U.S. ascendancy as an informal empire in Latin America. This book explores the intellectual history of a distinctive idea of American international law in the Americas, focusing principally on the evolution of the American Institute of International Law (AIIL). This organization was created by U.S. and Chilean jurists James Brown Scott and Alejandro Alvarez in Washington D.C. for the construction, development, and codification of international law across the Americas. Juan Pablo Scarfi examines the debates sparked by the AIIL over American international law, intervention and non-intervention, Pan-Americanism, the codification of public and private international law and the nature and scope of the Monroe Doctrine, as well as the international legal thought of Scott, Alvarez, and a number of jurists, diplomats, politicians, and intellectuals from the Americas. Professor Scarfi argues that American international law, as advanced primarily by the AIIL, was driven by a U.S.-led imperial aspiration of civilizing Latin America through the promotion of the international rule of law. By providing a convincing critical account of the legal and historical foundations of the Inter-American System, this book will stimulate debate among international lawyers, IR scholars, political scientists, and intellectual historians.

Book Synopsis A Landscape of Contemporary Theories of International Law by : Emmanuel Roucounas
Download or read book A Landscape of Contemporary Theories of International Law written by Emmanuel Roucounas and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-09-16 with total page 731 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich and remarkable volume offers an overview of the most important schools, movements and trends which make up the theoretical landscape of contemporary international law, as well as the works of over 500 authors. It moves beyond generalization and examines how the relevant literature deals with the basic issues of the international legal system, such as international obligations, legitimacy, compliance, unity and universality, the rule of law, human rights, use of force and economics. It offers insights into the addressees (the state, international organizations, individuals and other private persons), and the construction of international law, including law-making, the relationship between norms, and interpretation. Moreover, it widens the discourse by addressing old, yet enduring, as well as new concerns about the functioning of the international legal system, and presents views of non-international lawyers and political scientists regarding that system. It is a valuable analysis for researchers, students, and practitioners.
Book Synopsis New Approaches to International Law by : José María Beneyto
Download or read book New Approaches to International Law written by José María Beneyto and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a unique reflection on the historic and contemporary influence of the New Approaches to International Law (NAIL) movement within the context of Europe and America. In particular, the contributions focus on the intellectual product of NAIL's founder, David Kennedy, in relation to three legal streams: human rights, legal history, and the law of war. On the one hand, the volume is valuable reading for a broad audience interested in the current challenges facing global governance, and how critical studies might contribute to innovative intellectual and practice-oriented developments in international law. On the other hand, stemming from a 2010 seminar in Madrid that brought together scholars to discuss David Kennedy's scholarship over the last three decades, the contributions here are a testament to the community and ideas of the NAIL tradition. The volume includes scholars from a wide field of legal interests and backgrounds.

Book Synopsis International Law in the US Legal System by : Curtis A. Bradley
Download or read book International Law in the US Legal System written by Curtis A. Bradley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Law in the U.S. Legal System provides a wide-ranging overview of how international law intersects with the domestic legal system of the United States, and points out various unresolved issues and areas of controversy. Curtis Bradley explains the structure of the U.S. legal system and the various separation of powers and federalism considerations implicated by this structure, especially as these considerations relate to the conduct of foreign affairs. Against this backdrop, he covers all of the principal forms of international law: treaties, executive agreements, decisions and orders of international institutions, customary international law, and jus cogens norms. He also explores a number of issues that are implicated by the intersection of U.S. law and international law, such as treaty withdrawal, foreign sovereign immunity, international human rights litigation, war powers, extradition, and extraterritoriality. This book highlights recent decisions and events relating to the topic, including various actions taken during the Trump administration, while also taking into account relevant historical materials, including materials relating to the U.S. Constitutional founding. Written by one of the most cited international law scholars in the United States, the book is a resource for lawyers, law students, legal scholars, and judges from around the world.

Book Synopsis AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL LAW CASES Fourth Series 2009 VOLUME 6 by : Oceana Editorial Board
Download or read book AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL LAW CASES Fourth Series 2009 VOLUME 6 written by Oceana Editorial Board and published by . This book was released on 2011-02-18 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AILC is an annual case law reporter that provides the full text of U.S. court opinions involving international law issues. The courts covered include all U.S. federal district courts, federal appellate courts, and the U.S. Supreme Court, as well as some state courts, the U.S. Court of Claims, the U.S. Court of International Trade, and the U.S. Tax Court. The series seeks to provide not every single case in which a court refers to international law but rather all cases that analyze at least one international law issue in depth. The list of subjects addressed by these volumes is vast and changes from year to year, with the inclusion and prominence of most topics turning on their prevalence in a given year's jurisprudence. Some consistently prominent topics are personal jurisdiction over foreign defendants, deportation procedure, and double taxation. Over the last three editions (2006, 2007, and 2008), many topics have developed rapidly and constitute a correspondingly larger portion of the volumes, particularly Terrorism, the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, Forum Non Conveniens, and an entirely new, added topic: the National Security Exception (to deportation eligibility). The 2008 edition of AILC also features expanded sections on family law and on the detention of terrorist suspects. The U.S. war on terror and the crisis at Guantanamo have made that last topic a significant and dynamic component of AILC. Each edition of AILC also comes framed with two practical resources for students and scholars. The first is an introductory editor's note that both reviews international law's major developments for the given year and explains to readers how to use the volumes. The second is a subject index to allow for targeted research. Volume Six of AILC includes the exceptions and limitations of procedural aspects, such as the Political Question Doctrine, the Federal Tort Claims Act, the Foreign Affairs Doctrine, and the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations. The volume also includes cases involving diplomacy and diplomatic immunity and treaties and agreements. In Mani Kumari Sabbithi v. Major Waleede KH N.S. AL SALEH, domestic workers from India sued their employers and the state of Kuwait under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and various contract and tort claims. The court granted the defendants' motion to dismiss based on diplomatic immunity. In In re B. Del C.S.B., the issue was whether a child of Mexican origin, whose mother wrongfully retained her in the United States, should be allowed to stay in her current home while custody proceedings are conducted in the United States, or whether she should be returned to Mexico while the proceedings are conducted there. The court examined whether a child is not settled for the purposes of Article 12 of the Hague Convention.

The second is a subject index to allow for targeted research. The cases in Volume Three of AILC cover procedural aspects, including jurisdictional questions, forum non conveniens, choice of law, and discovery. The issue in Capital Ventures International v. Republic of Argentina was whether the Republic of Argentina explicitly waived its sovereign immunity from suit in the United States as to claims relating to bonds issued by Argentina under German law. The court found that there was subject matter jurisdiction over the claims relating to the German bonds because Argentina explicitly waived its sovereign immunity to suit in United States courts on those claims. In Aguas Lenders Recovery Group LLC v. Suez, S.A., Sociedad General de Aguas de Barcelona, S.A., Agua y Saneamientos Argentinos, S.A., the issue was whether, for the purposes of the doctrine of forum non conveniens, a non-signatory to an agreement may be bound by a forum selection clause and forum non conveniens waiver contained in contracts entered into by an entity alleged to be a predecessor in interest. The court held that such a non-signatory may be bound.
