The Politics of Legal Regimes of Nuclear Energy in the Aspect of International Security
This book represents a comprehensive contemporary view of the current, hot, and controversial issues revolving around nuclear energy. It involves issues of international/national security where realpolitik, in terms of power politics, remain key features in State relations. States, through international law and cooperation, managed to put in place a nuclear energy management regime with the Non-Proliferation Treaty as its main pillar. The book analyzes the role of international law in this highly sensitive issue, with referral to specific cases of proliferation and the current standings in the control of nuclear energy.

Gerechte Intervention?
Bewaffnete Eingriffe in innerstaatliche Konflikte sind in den letzten Jahren immer wieder als Ultima Ratio genannt worden, um der internationalen Schutzverantwortung oder dem Recht auf Selbstverteidigung nachzukommen. Sie stehen jedenfalls im Spannungsfeld zwischen dem prinzipiellen Gewaltverbot und aktuellen Realitäten, die ihren Ausdruck im Konzept der Responsibility to Protect (R2P) finden. AutorInnen aus unterschiedlichen wissenschaftlichen Richtungen und Ländern setzen sich mit diesen und anderen Fragen auseinander und versuchen die Thematik aus mehreren Perspektiven und Blickwinkeln zu diskutieren.
Der Schutz der Menschheit vor existentiellen Risiken im Völkerrecht
Künstliche Intelligenz stellt nach dem Philosophen Nick Bostrom das größte existentielle Risiko und eine Bedrohung für alle Menschen dar und erfordert somit ein Handeln auf internationaler Ebene. Das führt aus rechtswissenschaftlicher Perspektive zu der Frage, ob und gegebenenfalls inwieweit das Völkerrecht gegenwärtig bereits Regelungen zum Schutz der Menschheit vor existentiellen Risiken bereithält. Es zeigt sich, dass sich ein Existenzrecht der Menschheit ableiten lässt, aufgrund dessen die Staaten zum Schutz der Existenz der Menschheit verpflichtet sind.

Das Vetorecht im UN-Sicherheitsrat
Peter Zickenheiner geht in seiner Dissertation der Frage nach, in welchen Fallgestaltungen und anhand welcher Kriterien von einem Missbrauch des Vetorechts gesprochen werden kann. Ziel ist es, neue Vetofallgruppen und Kriterien herauszuarbeiten, die die Feststellung eines Vetomissbrauchs ermöglichen und in diesem Bereich neue Ansätze aufzuzeigen. Er belegt im Ergebnis, dass das Vetorecht rechtlichen Beschränkungen unterliegt, in der Praxis allerdings Hindernisse tatsächlicher Natur bestehen. Zur Eindämmung des Vetomissbrauchs wird die Verabschiedung einer Resolution durch die UN-Generalversammlung vorgeschlagen.

Self-determination in International Law
The right of self-determination affects many areas of international law, from sovereignty over territory and human rights to decisions on the recognition of new States and the succession of States to treaties. It also has an impact on many approaches to understanding the nature of international law and international society. This volume sets out some of the methods by which authors have dealt with the right of self-determination and provides illustrations of the applications of the right to a variety of situations.
Statehood and the Law of Self-Determination
Although most international lawyers assumed that the distribution of the land surface of the earth between States was more or less final after the end of decolonization, recent practice has disproved this assumption. Eritrea separated from Ethiopia and new States were created out of the former Soviet Union, the former Yugoslavia and the former Czechoslovakia. There is no reason to believe that these events form the end of the creation of new States. Numerous communities within existing States claim a right to full separate statehood on the basis of their entitlement to an alleged right to self-determination. However, in most cases, the international community rejected such claims to statehoo...
