Book Description
There is an increasing focus on the need for national implementation of treaties. Inteational law has traditionally left enforcement to the individual parties, but more and more treaties contain arrangements to induce States to comply with their commitments. Experts in this 2007 book examine three forms of such mechanisms:dispute settlement procedures in the form of inteational courts, non-compliance procedures of an administrative character, and enforcement of obligation by coercive means. Three fields are examined, namely human rights, inteational environmental law, and arms control and disarmament. These areas are in the forefront of the development of inteational law and deal with multilateral, rather than purely bilateral issues. Each part of the book on human rights, inteational environmental law and arms control contain a general introduction and case studies of the relevant treaties in the field. Will appeal widely to both generalists and specialists in inteational law and relations.
