International Law and Foreign Affairs in English Courts
Author: Shaheed Fatima QC
Publisher: Hart Publishing
ISBN: 9781849461504
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 536
Book Description
In conflicts around the world, children are being killed, raped, abducted and recruited to fight at a shocking scale. In light of this continuing, if not worsening, general failure to protect children in conflict, it is questionable whether existing international law norms and institutions provide sufficient protection and accountability. Consideration needs to be given to whether international law can do more – practically and effectively – when moral lines are crossed. That is the purpose behind this book. It reviews the position of children in conflict by reference to the 'six grave violations' as identified by the UN Security Council. It analyses the protection offered by international humanitarian law, international criminal law and international human rights law, and also assesses the related adjudicative accountability mechanisms. The analysis concludes with a number of recommendations and proposals for reform, with a view to enhancing accountability, deterring future violations and ending the war on children. The book has been written by a team of lawyers, headed by Shaheed Fatima QC, and has drawn on the input of an expert advisory panel comprising leading academics, policy-makers and activists. It has been written as part of the Inquiry on Protecting Children in Conflict. The Inquiry has been sponsored by Save the Children and Theirworld and chaired by former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
This text provides a comprehensive analysis of the conflict of laws as applicable in English law. It seeks to introduce the subject to students by examining preliminary topics, such as when the rules come into play, the need for application, classification and connecting factors. It includes coverage of the rules on jurisdiction, choice of law in relation to contract, tort, property and damages; and full commentary on the law of domicile, family law and recognition and enforcement of judgments. English rules on conflict laws have undergone a number of important changes since the first edition and are reflected here.

Commercial Agency, Franchise and Distribution Contracts
Author: Martijn W. Hesselink
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter
ISBN: 3866537077
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
The rules presented in this volume of "Principles of European Law" deal with commercial agency, franchise and distribution contracts, and with other contracts where one party uses the other party's skill and efforts to bring its products to the market. Although these Principles are not directly applicable to other long-term (commercial) contracts, some of the Articles may be applied to such contracts by way of analogy where appropriate. The economic function of all three contracts is that they are instrumental in bringing products to the market. They are so-called vertical agreements, as they are agreements between economic actors on different levels in the production and distribution chain. Obviously, the economic importance of these contracts is enormous since they form the connection between producers and retailers who sell the products to consumers and other final users. There are only very few economic sectors where producers regularly sell their products directly to final consumer users. Goodwill compensation after the ending of a distribution contract, the moment at which the agent's commission is due, the franchisor's obligation to maintain the good reputation of the network are but a few examples of issues where specific rules are needed in order to give legal practice some guidance and to provide practitioners with a reasonable degree of legal certainty.
