Opis

The proliferation of new international courts and tribunals in recent years has given rise to concerns of jurisdictional overlaps between the new and existing judicial bodies. The book examines what would happen when the same dispute falls under the jurisdiction of more than one forum. This raises both theoretical and practical issues of coordinating between the various jurisdictions and identifies rules of law which ought to apply in such circumstances.

Recenzje

This book deserves attention not only because of the timeliness the topic but also on account of the excellent academic treatment of the subject. Shany analyses the existing international law and the policy issues involved with thoroughness and precision. The result is an impressive work of legal scholarship.
