Funkcje konsulów Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej. Komentarz
Prezentowany komentarz jest pierwszym na rynku wydawniczym opracowaniem zawierającym objaśnienia do przepisów ustawy z dnia 13 lutego 1984 r. o funkcjach konsulów Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej, a także do przepisów wykonawczych do tej ustawy. Złożoność komentowanej materii jest przede wszystkim związana z różnorodnością funkcji pełnionych przez konsulów, których wielość sprawia, że realizują oni uprawnienia, które w warunkach organizacji państwowej są przyznane różnym organom i instytucjom. Są to m.in. funkcje o charakterze ogólnym (polityczne, dyplomatyczne, ekonomiczne, kulturalne), administracyjnym (wydawanie wiz i paszportów, przyjmowanie oświadczeń w sprawie obywatelstwa, czynności konsula jako urzędnika stanu cywilnego), sądowym (czynności notarialne, sprawy spadkowe, opieka i kuratela, doręczanie pism procesowych, reprezentowanie obywateli polskich przed sądami, przesłuchiwanie i porozumiewanie się z aresztowanymi obywatelami polskimi), morskim (w odniesieniu do statków podnoszących polską banderę oraz ich załóg, pasażerów i ładunków).
Reservations to Human Rights Treaties and the Vienna Convention Regime
There has always been some discomfort about reservations in relation to international obligations of States applicable to individuals. This apprehension was once again brought to the forefront of the international normative process with General Comment No. 24 of the Human Rights Committee and the work of the International Law Commission on reservations to treaties. This book is a contribution to the debate on reservations to human rights treaties. Several key questions are addressed. Can the reservations' regime, as codified in the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, adequately address human rights relationships? Is there a danger of further fragmentation of international law if human rights treaties were to be treated differently as concerns the reservations'regime applicable to these treaties? Should the distinction be made between the validity of a reservation and the effects of a reservation found to be invalid? These and other questions continue to generate a variety of answers.
Diversity and Self-Determination in International Law
The emergence of new states and independence movements after the Cold War has intensified the long-standing disagreement among international lawyers over the right of self-determination, especially the right of secession. Knop shifts the discussion from the articulation of the right to its interpretation. She argues that the practice of interpretation involves and illuminates a problem of diversity raised by the exclusion of many of the groups that self-determination most affects. Distinguishing different types of exclusion and the relationships between them reveals the deep structures, biases and stakes in the decisions and scholarship on self-determination. Knop's analysis also reveals that the leading cases have grappled with these embedded inequalities. Challenges by colonies, ethnic nations, indigenous peoples, women and others to the gender and cultural biases of international law emerge as integral to the interpretation of self-determination historically, as do attempts by judges and other institutional interpreters to meet these challenges.
