The 'British Year Book of International Law' is a key reference resource for academics and practising lawyers, providing up-to-date information on important developments in modern international law.
Yaël Ronen analyses the international legal ramifications of illegal territorial regimes, namely the illegal annexation of territory or illegal declarations of independence, by reference to the stage of transition from an illegal territorial regime to a lawful one. Six case studies (Namibia, Zimbabwe, the Baltic States, the South African Bantustans, East Timor and northern Cyprus) are used to explore the tension between the invalidity of the illegal regime's acts and their effectiveness, with respect to the international relations of such territories, their domestic legal systems, the status of settlers and land transfers. Relying heavily on primary and previously unconsidered sources, she focuses on the international legal constraints on the post-transition regime's policy, particularly in the context of international human rights law.
From the fall of the Berlin Wall to Kosovo, covering the unification of Germany, the break-up of the USSR & Yugoslavia, as well as the "velvet divorce" of Czechoslovakia, these last ten years have seen great upheavals in our continent, on a scale probably unparalleled since the fall of the Roman empire. The Council of Europe has played a special role in all of this, as the structure best qualified to welcome the new European democracies, & its membership has soared from 23 to 41 (including 17 central & east European countries) between 1990 & 1999. Truly "a decade which made history" -- & one which the reader is invited to retrace in these pages.
