The Procedural Law Governing Facts and Evidence in International Human Rights Proceedings
This book provides a comparative assessment of the procedural law governing facts and evidence with references to over 900 judgments and decisions of the European and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights as well as the UN Human Rights Committee. It identifies underlying principles which govern the procedural law of these international human rights institutions. Based on the premise of a contextualized procedural law governing facts and evidence, the book analyzes where current approaches lack a foundation in the contextualization premise and offers solutions for recurring procedural problems relating to questions of subsidiarity in fact-finding, burden and standard of proof, as well as the admissibility and evaluation of evidence.
Labour Standards in International Economic Law
The book offers a comprehensive perspective on the highly topical issue of protecting and promoting labour standards in international economic law and the globalized economy. For the purpose of an in-depth analysis of both the specific and the fundamental aspects in this regard, it combines views from specialized academics of the legal and political sciences as well as experienced practitioners. The contributions to this book do not only reveal recurring obstacles but also point at best practices and potential for synergies, providing important guidance for future research and practice in international economic and labour law and policy.
The Requirement of Consultation with Indigenous Peoples in the ILO
In The Requirement of Consultation with Indigenous Peoples in the ILO, María Victoria Cabrera Ormaza examines the law-making and interpretive practice of the International Labour Organization (ILO) relating to indigenous peoples with a particular focus on the consultation requirement established by Article 6 of ILO Convention No. 169. Taking into account both the mandate and institutional characteristics of the ILO, the author explains how the ILO understands the notion of consultation with indigenous peoples and outlines the flaws in its approach. Through a comprehensive analysis of state practice and human rights jurisprudence concerning indigenous peoples, the author explores the normative impact of ILO Convention No. 169, while revisiting the ILO’s potential to help harmonize different interpretations of the consultation requirement.
Global Governance and the International Law of the Sea
This book conducts an examination of the international legal regime of the continental shelf through the lens of international relations (IR), with a primary focus on global governance theory. Presenting a new perspective within the field of IR and international law, the book offers new insights into the rules, principles, practices, and actors that establish and govern social interactions and the management of common affairs at the transnational level. The governance framework within the continental shelf can encompass a wider scope than legal laws alone, incorporating informal rules or potentially disregarding formal “black letter” rules that may not be effectively applied in practice....
International Law and...
The European Society of International Law (ESIL) is known for its particularly dynamic character. After 10 years of existence it has proved that it is one of the most cutting-edge scholarly associations in the field of public international law. At its 10th Anniversary Conference in September 2014, which was held in Vienna, participants assembled in order to discuss 'International law and...', the proceedings of which are published here. Going beyond the usual related disciplines of political science, international relations, economics and history, this conference ventured into less well-trodden paths, exploring the links between international law and cinema, philosophy, sports, the arts and other areas of human endeavour. As the proceedings show, it is clear that international law has long been influenced by other fields of law and other disciplines. They also explore whether the boundaries of international law have been crossed and, if so, in what ways.
Russian Discourses on International Law
A number of recent events in the last decade have renewed interest in Russian discourses on international law. This book evaluates and presents a contemporary analysis of Russian discourses on international law from various perspectives, including sociological, theoretical, political, and philosophical. The aim is to identify how Russia interacts with international law, the reasons behind such interactions, and how such interactions compare with the general practice of international law. It also examines whether legal culture and other phenomena can justify Russia’s interaction in international law. Russian Discourses on International Law explains Russia's interpretation of international l...
Judgments of the European Court of Human Rights - Effects and Implementation
This volume deals with the domestic effects of judgments of the European Court of Human Rights as a challenge to the various levels of legal orders in Europe. The starting point is the divergent impact of the ECtHR’s jurisdiction within the Convention States. The volume seeks new methods of orientation at the various legal levels, given the fact that the Strasbourg case law is increasingly important for most areas of society. Topical tendencies in the case law of the Court are highlighted and discussed against the background of the principle of subsidiarity. The book includes a detailed analysis of the scope, reach, consequences and implementation of the Court’s judgments and of the issue of concomitant damages. At the same time the volume deals with the role of domestic jurisdictions in implementing the ECtHR’s judgments. Distinguished Judges, legal academics and practitioners from various Council of Europe States are among the contributors to this volume, which succeeds in bringing divergent points of view into the discussion and in developing strategies for conflict resolution.
Maßstäbe der europäischen Integration
Quis iudicabit? Diese Grundfrage der europaischen Integration bleibt nicht zuletzt wegen der Entscheidungen des BVerfG und des EuGH zum PSP-Programm der EZB hochaktuell. Obwohl beide Gerichte die Notwendigkeit der Kooperation bzw. des gerichtlichen Dialogs betonen, nehmen sie weiterhin das Letztentscheidungsrecht fur sich in Anspruch. Um eine nachhaltige Uberwindung des Streits uber das "letzte Wort" zu ermoglichen, pladiert Martin Schwamborn fur einen pluralistischen Ansatz, der die rechtlichen Pramissen beider Seiten als gleichberechtigt anerkennt und den Fokus auf die jeweiligen Integrationsmassstabe legt. Zu diesem Zweck untersucht er die Massstabe, die BVerfG und EuGH beim Schutz der Grundrechte, der nationalen (Verfassungs-)Identitat und der Kompetenzgrenzen heranziehen. Davon ausgehend, skizziert er die Grundzuge eines massstabsorientierten Kooperationsverhaltnisses, welches fur kunftige Verfahren einen prozessualen und inhaltlichen Rahmen fur die gemeinsame Ausgestaltung der Integrationsmassstabe zur Verfugung stellt.
Time and International Adjudication
Time and International Adjudication fills a gap in legal literature in the field of international dispute settlement, by providing a wide selection of stimulating contributions by leading international scholars and lawyers, aimed at discussing the role of time in proceedings before international courts and tribunals. The relevance of the temporal factor in international adjudication is assessed by considering each of the different phases of international judicial proceedings. The analysis covers inter-State proceedings before both permanent courts and tribunals (such as the ICJ, ITLOS and the DSB of the WTO) and arbitral tribunals, as well as international proceedings between individuals and States before regional human rights courts and investment tribunals.
Extraterritorialität
Ist das interdisziplinare Phanomen der extraterritorialen Praxis eine legitime Rechtsbildung? Wie lasst sich dieses Phanomen unter Beachtung der hoheitlichen extraterritorialen Anordnung und der Entstehung durch richterliche Rechtsfortbildung im transnationalen Raum und in aktuellen Globalisierungsprozessen verorten? Claudia Kurkin analysiert die weltweit signifikante unilaterale Praxis unter Auswertung des angloamerikanischen Schrifttums. Sie entwickelt auf der Grundlage der im Forum der Generalversammlung der Vereinten Nationen beschlossenen Sustainable Development Goals einen methodischen Losungsvorschlag. Seine konsequente Anwendung kann ermoglichen, die bisweilen feindselige extraterritoriale Praxis gegenuber anderen Staaten, der Staatengemeinschaft und Privatrechtssubjekten an weltweit anschlussfahige und praktikable Parameter anzubinden, um faire und transparente Ergebnisse sowie nachhaltiges Recht zu schaffen.
