DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe editors (all from the U. of New South Wales, Australia) gather key documents concerning the international law on the use of force by states, with an emphasis on the international law on the use of force as a political endeavor. Each document, they write, is of significance for one or more of three reasons. "Either it sheds light on the political story through which this body of law evolved; or it is a legal document, a "source" of international law; or, third, it helps us to assess the real-world impact of that law." Chapters address the historical background of the current legal regime, outline the current UN Charter framework regarding the use of force; address issues relevant to the right to self-defense, the crime of aggression, and terrorism; and explore the legality of the US invasion of Iraq. Each chapter contains an introduction to the topic, followed by a selection of documents, each of which is accompanied by an analysis of the document's significance and contents. Various sidebars contain associated facts or portions of related documents.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBased on an analysis of the diplomatic practice of States, and decisions by national and international courts, this book explores the two central questions of the recognition of governments. These are namely: what are the meanings of the term 'recognition' and its variants in internationallaw; and what is the effect of recognition on the legal status of foreign authorities, and in particular of authorities in exile recognized as governments. The book is comprehensive in its analysis of the issues, and covers material which is of significant historical interest, as well as highlytopical material such as recent developments in Angola, Kuwait and Haiti. Thus Talmon's book will hold great appeal for international law scholars and practitioners alike. It may also be of interest to diplomats and civil servants working in organizations such as the United Nations.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe question of the authority of international law over domestic authorities and the duties of state officials to international law are fundamental concerns in international legal theory and practice. The Authority of International Law: Obedience, Respect, and Rebuttal addresses these concerns by reframing the present accounts of authority in international law, construing its authority as imposing three different layers of duties on domestic officials: the duty to obey, the duty to respect, and the duty to rebut. The book provides an original interpretation of this authority - one that is not tied to prior state consent or domestic constitutional frameworks. It offers a nuanced account, arguing that whether or not international law is obeyed within any given situation depends on the type of duty it imposes on the state, and that duty's normative force. There is no strict framework in which international law always trumps domestic law or vice versa. Instead, Cali presents a realistic account of when international law has absolute authority, and when it can afford a margin of appreciation to states. The Authority of International Law contributes to existing debates by considering the gap between consent-based jurisprudential theories of authority and self-interest and identity-based theories of compliance, and by considering monism, dualism, and normative pluralism as theories for addressing authority competition between domestic legal orders and international law.
