On the Foundations and Sources of International Law Hardback
Edited by Ige F. Dekker, Harry H. G. Post
Hardback
Description
The contributions included in this book, all written by renowned scholars, examine some of the long-standing fundamental issues of international law.
The main part concerns the question: how is international law made and applied?
A highly original, systematic assessment of the formation of customary international law by Herman Meijers - now for the first time published in English - provides an answer to this question.
Two other long-standing fundamental issues are examined.
Firstly, the plausibility of the hypothesis that international law is complete on the basis of the existence of a so-called 'closing rule'.
Secondly, a study of the principle of the genuine link in the modern law of the sea demonstrates that its livelihood is so limited that a post mortem is justified.
The volume is concluded by a discussion on a paradoxical aspect of the law of treaties, namely regarding the right of the parties to terminate their agreements.
