Review The World Bank Legal Papers / Springer:This text compiles the legal opinions and memoranda written by Ibrahim F. I. Shihata to the World Bank's Executive Directors during his tenure as the Bank's Vice President, then Senior Vice President and General Counsel which extended from August 1, 1983 to October 15, 1998. It also includes some of Mr. Shihata's notes to the Bank's Senior Management and some of his oral interventions before the Bank's Board of Executive Directors. In addition, the book comprises the major legal memoranda written by the staff of the World Bank's Legal Department under Mr. Shihata's supervision. Never before had the World Bank or any international organization for that matter authorized the publication of such a detailed record. By authorizing and indeed encouraging such a publication, the World Bank President and Executive Directors are making a significant contribution to the Bank's transparency and to the development of the law of international financial institutions. The book is characterized by the very broad coverage of the topics it addresses and the depth of its analysis. [+]It provides a most relevant reading, not only to the lawyers of the World Bank and other global and regional development finance institutions, but also to members of the executive boards and management of these institutions as well as to all others concerned with issues of development, international law and international organizations. As the eighth book produced by Shihata, on matters related to the World Bank's work, it crowns his contribution to the varied and expanding fields this important institution continues to address.

Review The Concept of Treaty in International Law (Developments in International Law) (Developments in International Law) / Springer:Whether or not a certain norm is legally binding upon international actors may often depend on whether or not the instrument which contains the norm is to be regarded as a treaty. In this study, the author argues that instruments which contain commitments are, ex hypothesi, treaties. In doing so, he challenges popular notions proclaiming the existence of morally and politically binding agreements and so-called `soft law'. Such notions, Klabbers argues, are internally inconsistent and founded upon untenable presumptions. Moreover, they find little support in the pertinent decisions of municipal and international courts and tribunals. The book addresses issues of importance not only for academics working in international law, constitutional law and political science, but also for practitioners involved in the making, implementation and enforcement of international agreements.

Review Self-Determination in International Law:Quebec and Lessons: Legal Opinions / Springer:The case of Quebec within Canada, and the Supreme Court of Canada's case on the legality of secessionist attempts by Quebec, is one example of the tension associated with the relationship between self-determination and a right of secession. The object of the book is to render available to the international community the expert opinions and legal arguments associated with the Supreme Court of Canada's decision on the Quebec Secession Reference. The questions put to the Court in large part concerned international law, leading the parties to the Reference to seek opinions from international law experts around the world as they prepared their arguments which are presented in this book. Self-determination is an idea rooted in human dignity and its meaning and force parallel the emergence of new understandings of the nature of sovereignty and the role of international law in the protection of human rights. The UN Human Rights Committee has identified self-determination as one of the most awkward principles to define because abuse of this right could jeopardize international peace and security. Self-determination, as formulated by the International Court of Justice, requires a free and genuine expression of the will of the peoples concerned. But serious questions remain about the extent of the relationship between self-determination and a right of secession. Does self-determination legitimate internal self-government, association of some kind with another state, or statehood, and in what contexts?.

Review Annuaire Europeen 1989 - European Yearbook 1989 (Annuaire European/European Yearbook) (Annuaire European/European Yearbook) / Springer:The "European Yearbook has expanded over the years in keeping with the role played by European institutions compared with nationalones. It is an indispensable work of reference for anyone dealingwith these institutions, which have become so numerous and variedthat no-one can possibly memorise all their acronyms or functions. The "European Yearbook provides aids for finding one's way through the labyrinth of these organisations which coordinate a variety of activities in over 20 countries. One of the aids is an 'organisation chart' at the beginning of the documentary section, giving a clear picture of the general situation. A perusal of the many contributions in the volume organisation by organisation, shows the full diversity of the activities which Europe is gradually taking over from national governments, with their consent and financial support. Written in both of the Council of Europe's official languages, English and French, the "European Yearbook also contains a general index by subject and name which constitutes a very valuable list of articles and provides direct access to the work's subject matter, regardless of the particular organisation concerned, offering a kind of cross-section of the activities of European organisations.
