International Humanitarian Law Facing
New Challenges

International Humanitarian Law Facing New Challenges

Symposium in Honour of KNUT IPSEN

EU gender equality law has expanded considerably in scope, evolving from its modest origins as a single provision on equal pay in the 1957 Treaty of Rome into a complex body of Treaty provisions, directives, and case law that shapes gender equality across the Member States. The pace of the legal developments can make the field challenging to navigate for practitioners, policymakers, and academics alike. EU Gender Equality Law: Concepts, Practice, Challenges provides an essential guide through this multifaceted area of law.

The book offers a comprehensive English-language analysis of this dynamic field, written by three leading scholars in equality, EU, and human rights law. Grounded in feminist legal theory and taking a law-in-context approach, the book address achievements and current limitations of the legislation, CJEU case law, and implementation at the EU and national levels. It also gives attention to the most recent directives, including in particular the Work-Life Balance and Pay Transparency Directives.

Core concepts such as sex and gender, equality, and different forms of discrimination are examined, not only within the general foundations of EU law but also in the broader context of international human rights law. The book provides in-depth discussions of equal pay; gender equality at work; pregnancy, maternity, and work-life balance; equal access to goods and services; and effective enforcement. 

Throughout, EU Gender Equality Law moves beyond the current state of the law and practice, critically reflecting on the role law can play in sustaining inequality. It also takes a forward-looking perspective, exploring possibilities the law offers to address structural gender inequality and to contribute to transformative equality.

Routledge Handbooks in Law

This book provides a comprehensive examination of the foundations, evolution, and future of international refugee law, focusing on the 1951 Refugee Convention and its 1967 Protocol. It explores pressing contemporary challenges such as climate-induced displacement, LGBTQ+ and religion-based asylum claims, digitalisation, regional refugee protection regimes, and the lived experiences of displaced communities across Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and beyond. The volume features insights from leading and emerging scholars and practitioners across law, political science, and related disciplines, presenting an interdisciplinary approach that combines doctrinal analysis with a timely, fresh, and authoritative assessment of the changing landscape of refugee protection.Designed for students, academics, researchers, legal practitioners, and humanitarian professionals, this collection provides rigorous analysis of legal principles alongside regional case studies-including the Rohingya in Bangladesh, Afghan and Syrian refugees in the United Kingdom, Ukrainians in Poland, and Venezuelans across Latin America and the Caribbean. This approach bridges the gap between legal doctrine and practice. Critically evaluating the strengths and limitations of the existing international refugee law framework, it equips readers with the knowledge and analytical tools needed to contribute to more effective and inclusive refugee protection regimes.

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

Realising that the need for conservation of the Outstanding Universal Values (OUVs) of World Heritage Sites still remains much more dominant than a holistic approach towards the wider social, economic and environmental implications, the book "World Heritage and Sustainable Development" aims to examine and propose ways in which sustainable cultural development can become an integral part of successful conservation and management within the context of World Heritage Sites (WHSs). In order to do so, thematic chapters concentrating on issues of building conservation, climate change and human development within the context of World Heritage Sites (WHSs) will be included.

The book offers a comprehensive and innovative examination of how international law and institutions navigate the complexities of modern conflicts and crises. It is structured around four key themes which provide an integrated approach to understanding the legal and institutional responses to today’s global challenges.&nbsp;The first theme, Public International Law in Conflicts and Crisis, critically explores the failures and gaps in current legal frameworks, such as the ineffectiveness of&nbsp;jus ad bellum&nbsp;and&nbsp;jus in bello&nbsp;in the Russia-Ukraine war and the limitations of international organizations, revealing the inadequacies of existing international regulations.&nbsp;The second theme, Migration, Refugee Protection, and Human Rights in Contemporary Crises analyzes how global crises, including pandemics, exacerbate existing inequalities and disrupt traditional protection frameworks. It offers a critical analysis of the legal status of settlers, the protection challenges for unaccompanied refugee children, and the broader implications of global crises on human rights.&nbsp;Geopolitical Dynamics and Institutional Responses in a Changing World forms the third theme, analyzing how shifting power structures and geopolitical tensions reshape international law and institutional responses. This section provides insights into regional conflicts, such as those in Southeast Asia and the Middle East, examining how global governance struggles to adapt to evolving challenges.&nbsp;The final theme, Evolving Socioeconomic Landscapes of Power Structures Amid Crisis, focuses on how crises influence corporate responsibility, economic resilience, and international trade. Introducing innovative legal perspectives like Egocentric Legal Formalism (ELF), it explains the impact of crises on global power asymmetries.This book is essential for policymakers, legal professionals, international relations scholars, and anyone interested in understanding the multifaceted legal and institutional responses to conflicts and crises in the 21st century. Its interdisciplinary approach, combining legal theory with practical analysis, offers valuable insights into navigating today’s global challenges and shaping more effective responses for the future.
