Review The Universal Declaration of Human Rights:A Common Standard of Achievement / Springer:This volume celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). In so doing, it offers a comprehensive and systematic treatment of the rights and duties contained in the UDHR, in the light of its history, the intentions of its drafters and the standard-setting activities and monitoring efforts which have grown out of its existence. Each article of the UDHR is treated in a separate chapter; each chapter is written by a different author, all scholars from, or associated with, the Nordic countries, and all active in human rights work, either academically or in the field. A consolidated biography completes the collection. The subtitle of this volume is "A Common Standard of Achievement", a phrase drawn from the Preamble of the UDHR. In many ways, this collection is intended to demonstrate that this phrase has, to a considerable extent, come true.

Review The Interpretation of Agreements and World Public Order:Principles of Content and Procedure (New Haven Studies in International Law a) (New Haven Studies in International Law a) / Springer:The policy-oriented approach of the New Haven School is widely recognized as a major contribution to the legal and jurisprudential debate on interpretation. Eschewing mechanical textual methods, on the one hand, and anti-textual, solipsistic methods, on the other, the New Haven School has developed a comprehensive and systematic approach to the interpretation of human communication. Drawing upon psychology, legal experience, and communications theory, of which Lasswell was a founder, the authors have developed a theoretically cogent and practical method of interpretation. In the course of doing it, they survey the existing literature, showing its problems. In addition to the original text of The Interpretation of Agreements, this edition includes a new introduction, in which developments since the appearance of the book are examined and appraised, and three important papers which elaborate the theory developed here, including Professor McDougal's scathing critique of the last major international conference on the law of treaties.

Review International Labour Law Reports / Kluwer Law International:The "International Labour Law Reports (ILLR) is a series of annual publications of labour law judgments by the highest courts in a number of jurisdictions. "ILLR is a particularly useful resource for judges, labour law practitioners, industrial relations specialists, and students who seek ready access to authoritative information of a comparative nature on problems arising in the field of labour law and industrial relations. "ILLR accompanies each reprinted judgement with Headnotes and, in practically all cases, an Annotation which sets forth, among other things, -the legal issues involved, - the basic facts of the case (if not included in the judgment itself), - the relevant statutory provisions and judicial precedents, - the labour law and industrial relations context in which the case arose, and - the significance of the judgment in the development of the law. "ILLR" provides the reader with factual information not coloured by the personal views of the annotators. As a rule, judgments are printed in extenso; the editors summarize or cut portions of judgments that are purely technical or only of marginal interest. "ILLR" also provides a list of cases both by jurisdiction and by subject matter. As a result, this work offers the reader a concise, readily-accessed statement of law. Volume 16 covers the period 1 October 1995 to 30 September 1996. (Volume 15 covers the period 1 October 1994 to 30 September 1995 and is also available, as are all earlier volumes. ).

Review International Environmental Law (2 Vol Set) / Ashgate Publishing:There is huge interest in International Environmental Law, matched by a widespread uncertainty as to which elements of International Environmental Law are really normative, how it all fits with other apparently competing norms, and whether it is an agenda being imposed by the industrialised world on developing nations. These essays have been carefully chosen to represent diversity of opinion and perspectives that are fully global. The editor's long introductory essay does much to deepen understanding of this complex but essential field of international law.

Review Collected Texts of the European Convention on Human Rights (Yearbook of the European Convention on Human Rights) (Yearbook of the European Convention on Human Rights) / Springer:The European Convention on Human Rights is undoubtedly the most concrete expression by the Member States of the Council of Europe of their profound belief in the values of democracy, peace and justice and, through them, respect for the rights and fundamental freedoms of persons living in our society. Although this instrument is over forty years old, it has evolved and continues to do so, not only through the case law of the European Commission and Court of Human Rights, but also through the addition of Protocols strengthening the rights and improving the protection mechanism. This revised edition of the 1987 Collected Texts gives lawyers and any other interested persons clear and up-to-date information on all these instruments and on the texts relating to the working of the bodies set up by the Convention. The basic instruments and texts contained in the 1994 Collected Texts (English and French) provide a vital tool for all those working for human rights in Europe.
