Brill

Studies in International Law

This book argues that the pursuit of universal norms remains a worthwhile endeavour for the international legal discipline. It does this while also engaging with the very active imperialist critique of such norms. The study has 4 aims; firstly to illustrate the role that the idea and debate around norms have in developing international law, and secondly to address the philosophical concerns around identifying such norms. It moves on to explore whether a legal/practical instantiation of the universal can be done without taking a particular position/perspective. And finally, it turns to the impact the universal has on the development of international human rights law. Public international law, human rights and legal philosophy scholars will welcome this original theoretical-philosophical perspective on an enduring debate in the field of international law.

International Law and the Pursuit of Universal Norms

Hart Studies in Commercial and Financial Law

This book provides a detailed analysis of two UNCITRAL texts: the Model Law on Electronic Transferable Records (MLETR) and the Model Law on the Use and Cross-border Recognition of Identity Management and Trust Services (MLIT). The MLETR is the legal tool that enables the use of trade documents such as bills of lading and promissory notes in electronic form. The book discusses core MLETR provisions such as those on scope of application, functional equivalence, and reliability standards. It illustrates national variations in enactment techniques and substantive content, including in France, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. The MLIT provides the legal framework to manage identity management and trust services, including electronic signatures. The book explains the different approaches to giving legal recognition and effect to identity management and trust services, both domestically and across borders. It discusses the legal framework to accommodate functions and needs of identity management, describes trust services against the background of pre-existing UNCITRAL texts, and takes into account the revised EU eIDAS Regulation. Providing an article-by-article commentary as well as an overview of implementation trends, the book is a fundamental resource for commercial, maritime and banking lawyers, digital economy policymakers, legislative drafters, supply chain management and paperless trade specialists, and for anyone interested in understanding the legal aspects of the transition from documents to data in trade.

Central Asia Yearbook on International Law

This book explores the human right to leave any country - including one's own - in international law, and its applicability to externalised migration control. It develops a framework for interpreting the right and demonstrates how various externalisation measures violate it, leading to the international responsibility of states and international organisations. Analysing the work of international and regional systems enshrining the right and examining global externalisation practices, it demonstrates the radical reform required by states and international organisations to comply with the right to leave. Implementing the author's recommendations would compel the dismantlement of many current externalisation strategies and a re-imagining of the global (im)mobility regime. This book offers compelling insights for lawyers in the fields of international law, human rights and refugee law, as well as migration policymakers, practitioners and officials.

Protecting the Right to Leave in an Era of Externalised Migration Control

Modern Studies in European Law

This book offers a comprehensive examination of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and its engagement with public international law. It explores how the Court has developed a flexible, context-dependent approach to international law, which seeks to balance the autonomy of the EU legal order with the necessity of recognising and integrating international legal principles. Rather than focusing on landmark cases, the book analyses the CJEU's jurisprudence thematically, exploring the various ways the Court encounters and engages with international law. These include the use of international law as a source and inspiration of EU law, as a method of challenging the validity of EU law, and as method of interpretation. The book goes beyond analysis of the judgments and explores the broader context in which the Court navigates its relationship with international law. It examines the circumstances under which the Court establishes barriers around the EU legal order, such as when it develops the principle of autonomy, and when it builds bridges with the international legal order, such as when it seeks to engage with and develop international law principles. This book will be of interest to scholars, practitioners, and students focused on the intersections of EU law and public international law, contributing to ongoing debates about legal pluralism and the evolving dynamics of intersecting legal frameworks.

The Court of Justice of the EU and Public International Law

This open access book asks whether international economic crime can qualify as an international crime and be prosecuted as such. Taking a four-part approach to the question, it traces the origins of the concept of international economic crime, and draws the line between ordinary economic crimes and economic offences of international significance. To this end, it examines six cases involving the commissions of serious economic crimes in different regions of the world, including Europe, the Americas and Africa: the crime of grand corruption in the Petrobras case; the theft of natural resources in the Niger Delta region and Liberia; the international money-laundering scheme in the Bolichicos case; the crime of financing terrorism in the Chiquita case; the Volkswagen conspiracy case in the US and the Haarde case related to gross-negligence in preventing serious economic damage. It then goes on to discuss a potential sui generis category of international economic crimes, before considering the advantages and the challenges of the multilevel enforcement system of international criminal justice in prosecuting such crimes. This book provides an innovative and original avenue for the analysis of a controversial and yet overlooked topic in international criminal law. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Lund University.

Theorising a New Paradigm of Mass Criminality

Systemic Economic Offences as International Crimes

How should the Arctic be viewed in the 21st century? In this book, a leading commentator assesses the competing players for the Arctic, looking at broad questions of governance and security. The author challenges the view that the Arctic is a passive space which is the focus of competitive advances from superpowers, arguing that it is more correctly understood as a dynamic pluriverse. Drawing on international law, international relations and diplomacy, this is an important re-assessment of the Arctic and its position in geo-politics.

Geopolitics and the High North

The Arctic Großraum

Science fiction has long been fascinated with the potential for sentient, human-like artificial persons. Even before reality meets fantasy, individuals, governments and businesses already entrust AI to make automated decisions with potential for real-life impact. What are the implications for AI legal personhood? This work examines how different legal entities differ in rights and duties and considers historical examples that show how legal personhood status can change over time under economic, social and pragmatic pressures. By abandoning the traditional binary, characteristics-based concept of the legal person for a historical lens, we are left with a more nuanced concept of the legal person against which sentience matters far less than what we might otherwise assume.

Persona Ex Machina: Artificial Intelligence on a Spectrum of Legal Personhood

Irish Yearbook of International Law

The Irish Yearbook of International Law supports research into Ireland's practice in international affairs and foreign policy, filling a gap in existing legal scholarship. This new volume covers the years 2023, amid growing state actions reflecting raw political and military power across the American continents, in the Middle East and amid ongoing armed conflicts around the world, most notably in Ukraine and in Gaza. Reports also cover topics on human rights in Ireland, international law in Ireland more generally, and the law of the sea. This volume of the Yearbook includes three articles, addressing international commercial contracts, the use of prosecutorial discretion at the International Criminal Court, and digital open-source evidence in regional human rights courts. Finally, the Yearbook also includes four book reviews covering a wide breadth of international law subjects, such as European legal regulation of technology, the morality of the laws of war, the prohibition of the use of force in international law, and sustainability in international trade agreements.
