F. A. Mann

Opis

This collection of previously published essays by one of the world's most distinguished experts in international law provides a detailed analysis of some of the most complex issues to have occupied international lawyers over the last quarter century. Drawing on a lifetime's experience and knowledge, Mann provides uncompromising and sometimes controversial essays on a host of topics, including the doctrine of Jus Cogens in international law, Britain's Bill of Rights, international wrong, state corporations in international relations, the Barcelona Traction case, investment treaties, the Aminoil arbitration, uniform statutes, the State Immunity Act of 1978, inviolability, public rights, compound interest as an item of damage, and the judicial recognition of unrecognized states.

Recenzje

Throughout this book Mann's approach is strongly analytical, direct, often provocative and always substantiated with ample case law. The selected topics are rarely merely academic but have great practical value too. Once grasped by the problems Mann introduces, the reader will be fully absorbed. The chapters on the limitations of State jurisdiction are probably the best ever written on this subject. Mann's analytical abilities bring the reader to a point that is beyond the reach of most other authors.
