Now in its seventh year, the "Max Planck Yearbook of United Nations Law" has become a much sought-after forum for essays in international law related to the UN. Volume seven is divided into two parts. The first part comprises topics like the wars against the Taliban and Iraq with an emphasis on the use of force and rules in armed conflict, as well as the question of so-called Rogue States and how to deal with them, or how to proceed with the Security Council Reform after a decade of failed attempts to reform it. The second part deals with the ICC and international criminal law. This volume is therefore again a must for any academic or practitioner involved in international law and questions concerning the United Nations.

Solidarity and community interest may appear to be purely abstract notions. But in fact they may form the basis of a more flexible approach to international lawmaking than traditional formulas of legally binding commitments. Through an empirical analysis of existing and emerging public international law, this book traces these concepts in existing regimes and investigates the impact they have had and will continue to have on the progressive development of specific international regimes, particularly those serving the protection of the environment and of human rights. It discusses how through these two regimes these concepts have changed the international normative order and explores the challenges such changes have created for implementation and enforcement. One such challenge is the lack of an adequate dispute settlement regime, and the book closes with some practical suggestions for an appropriate mechanism.
This book conceptualizes and examines theories of the 'Legal Pluriverse': the multiplicity of rules that regulate multinational missions and the diverse actors involved. The book sets out the various legal regimes, assesses how these rules interact, and exposes norm conflicts, areas of legal uncertainty, or ambiguous loopholes.
