In this book, Elies van Sliedregt examines the concept of individual criminal responsibility for violations of international humanitarian law, including genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. Such crimes are very rarely committed by single individuals, but mostly by organizations or groups of cooperating persons. For a just determination of their guilt and responsibility, a fair assessment of the mutual relationships and cooperation forms of those individuals is indispensable. This book provides the framework for that assessment. It gives guidance to practitioners and scholars on...

ISBN: 9789067041164 / Angielski / Miękka / 233 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The reservation of title clause plays an important role in contemporary trade.

The rules of substantive law relating to the reservation of title clause differ from country to country. Uniform or harmonized rules of substantive law - or even of...

Refugee Law in Context:The Exclusion Clause
ISBN: 9789067041188 / Angielski / Twarda / 327 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Both the 1951 Refugee Convention and the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights clearly indicate those asylum seekers who should be excluded from refugee status, excluded from asylum. The refugee lawyer, in order to fully appreciate the importance and relevance of this principle, needs to look beyond refugee law proper. The insight needed for the decision whether or not to apply the so-called 'exclusion clause' is to be found elsewhere within the realms of international law: international humanitarian law, international criminal law and United Nations law. In this publication,...

ISBN: 9789067041287 / Angielski / Twarda / 437 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The North is being increasingly confronted with a new phenomenon of migration: the so-called 'health tourism' of irregular migrants. One can already recognize a tendency among would-be migrants who either overstay their visas, or arrive under the pretext of being asylum-seekers, to come to the North with the intention of receiving medical treatment, in particular complicated surgery or other expensive forms of treatment, which they cannot get in their countries of origin, certainly not free of charge. Moreover, many others use 'illness' as a pretext or a reason for not being returned, or to...

Bait and Switch: Human Rights and U.S. Foreign Policy
ISBN: 9780415964494 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It has become routine for the US government to invoke human rights to justify its foreign policy decisions and military ventures. But this human rights talk has not been supported by a human rights walk. Policy makers consistently apply a double standard for human rights norms: one the rest of the world must observe, but which the US can safely ignore. Based on extensive interviews with leading foreign policy makers, military officials, and human rights advocates, Mertus tells the story of how America's attempts to promote human rights abroad have, paradoxically, undermined those...

This book looks at various migration law settings, asserting that differing but related globalization effects are discernable at each location. The "core samples"...
