Book Description
Excerpt from Students Leading Cases and Statutes on International Law This book is primarily designed for students who are starting on the study of international law; and it is meant to be used as a companion to the principal English text-books. No attempt has been made to render it sufficient in itself, or to link up the leading cases with such an amount of commentary as would render the use of a text-book unnecessary. In this respect the collection of cases differs from that made by Mr. Pitt-Cobbett, and it differs also in that it gives the ipsissima verba of the judges, in place of a digest or summary of their judgments. Many of the decisions are indeed abridged, but it is hoped that the material parts which deal with points of international law have always been given. It is very desirable that the student should become acquainted as early as possible with the way in which questions of international law are dealt with by the Courts, and that he should study not only the results of the cases but the methods by which the results are reached. There exists already a well-known selection of international law cases in English, based on this principle. It is that originally made by Professor Snow and subsequently edited and enlarged by Professor J. B. Scott of the George Washington University. For two reasons, however, the book is not altogether suitable for English students; it is somewhat large, and the selection is primarily made from American decisions. Although the judgments of international law by the nature of their subject should not differ fundamentally in different national jurisdictions, there is an obvious advantage to the student in studying the subject as it has been expounded by the Courts of his own country.

International Law
Author: Jens Ohlin
Publisher: Foundation Press
ISBN: 9781634605953
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 891
Book Description
International Law: Evolving Doctrine and Practice offers a flexible arrangement of materials for the teaching of an introductory course in international law. The inspiration for the book's editorial approach is the recognition that each professor comes to the study of international law from a variety of normative, critical, or interdisciplinary perspectives, and that the materials should be flexible enough to accommodate all comers. With this goal of pedagogical ecumenism in mind, the chapters present a variety of critical approaches to international law without letting one particular view dominate, though taken together the materials highlight the evolving nature of international legal doctrine and those areas where its legal norms remain contested or controversial. Sprinkled through each chapter are short Problem Cases--less than a page in length--that give students the opportunity to apply the doctrine to a unique fact pattern. The Problem Cases are presented in modular text boxes that can form the basis for rich classroom discussions or simply reserved for background reading at home, whichever the professor wishes. In addition to the typical array of chapters on sources and subjects of international law, human rights, International Humanitarian Law, International Criminal Law, the use of force, and humanitarian intervention, the book also includes chapters on international economic law and environmental law, including a consideration of the challenge posed by climate change.

Is International Law International?
Author: Anthea Roberts
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190696419
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
This book challenges the idea that international law looks the same from anywhere in the world. Instead, how international lawyers understand and approach their field is often deeply influenced by the national contexts in which they lived, studied, and worked. International law in the United States and in the United Kingdom looks different compared to international law in China and Russia, though some approaches (particularly Western, Anglo-American ones) are more influential outside their borders than others. Given shifts in geopolitical power and the rise of non-Western powers like China, it is increasingly important for international lawyers to understand how others coming from diverse backgrounds approach the field. By examining the international law academies and textbooks of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, Roberts provides a window into these different communities of international lawyers, and she uncovers some of the similarities and differences in how they understand and approach international law.
