Review The Public International Law of Taxation:Text, Cases and Materials / Springer:Intended to orientate tax practitioners to the Public International Law aspects of taxation, this text also provides a framework from which Public International Lawyers may probe more deeply into the legal challenges posed by the interaction of national taxation with internatinal law. As such, the characterization of the subject as "The Public International Law of Taxation" is a statement of the need for an international consciousness in relation to issues of taxation. Thus far, the analysis from an internatioal law stand-point has been specifically, for example, problems of treaty interpretation in relation to double taxation agreements, fiscal jurisdiction, the regulation of international trade and taxation. In this publication, drawing on original and secondary sources, the assimilaiton accompanied by the commentary is intended to be a comprehensive treatment of the subject in one source.

Review Chinese Law / Springer:The progressive globalization of business and the growing importance of China as an economic and political power make an understanding of the workings of Chinese law increasingly necessary for business people, lawyers, politicians and scholars. A multiplicity of laws and regulations passed every year by governments at various levels make the study of Chinese law an increasingly complex task. The editors and contributors of this book have endeavoured to present Chinese law wherever possible from an angle accessible to those with a common law background, whilst necessarily retaining the use of Chinese legal terminology. This book encompasses all of the most important aspects of Chinese law, and has a strong practical and case law emphasis and is edited by eminent academics at the City University of Hong Kong.

Review Administrative Courts in Indonesia:A Socio-Legal Study (London-Leiden Series on Law, Administration, and Development, 6.) (London-Leiden Series on Law, Administration, and Development, 6.) / Springer:In 1991, Indonesia introduced a system of administrative courts that was to contribute to establishing the rule of law in Indonesia and to provide recourse for citizens against unlawful administrative behaviour. This book evaluates the performance of this administrative court system. It explains why the courts were established in spite of the Indonesian state's authoritarian nature, and why and to what extent the system is a Dutch legal transplant. It analyzes the jurisdictionary powers of the courts and how the courts have used them. It then proceeds to explain the unbalanced nature of the record presented, by analyzing factors inside and outside the administrative court organization which influence its performance. These include budgetary deficits, lack of training opportunities, career manipulation, corruption, lack of government support, and many other non-legal issues.

Review Reflections on the Law of War (International Humanitarian Law) / BRILL:The papers collected in this volume span a 35-year period of active involvement in the 'reaffirmation and development of international humanitarian law'. A process under that name started in 1971 and ended in 1977 with the adoption of two Protocols Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 1949, one for international and one for internal armed conflicts. Subsequent developments brought a narrowing of this gap between international and internal armed conflicts, as well as growing recognition of the interplay between the law of armed conflict and human rights, the rediscovery of individual criminal liability for violations of international humanitarian law, the introduction of further prohibitions or restrictions on the use of specified weapons, and so on. In contrast with these positive developments, the period was negatively characterised by increasing disrespect, not only for some or other minor rule (such as what to do with cash taken from a prisoner of war at the time of his capture) but for the very principles underlying the entire body of the law of armed conflict: respect for the other as a human being and, hence, humane treatment of prisoners of war and other detainees, protection of civilians. Throughout the period, the author's activities ranged from participation in lawmaking and law interpreting exercises, through attempts at explaining the law of armed conflict in its historical context and making propaganda for its faithful implementation, to critical or even bewildered observance of actual events. The papers brought together here reflect these diverse angles.

Review The International Law of Human Rights and States of Exception:With Special Reference to the Travaux Preparatories and Case-Law of the International Monitoring ... (International Studies in Human Rights) / Springer:This study demonstrates the extensive protection that international law provides to human rights even in the most serious of emergencies when they are particularly vulnerable. Based on an analysis of preparatory works and practice under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, as well as the American and European Conventions on Human Rights, and with a chapter on the International Labour Organisation's approach to international labour standards and emergencies, this book shows that respect for the rule of law and the concept of a democratic society are controlling parameters in any valid limitation on the enjoyment of human rights. It further shows that respect for human rights and the operation of institutions such as the Legislature and Judiciary are crucial to enabling societies to address and eventually remedy the root causes of emergency situations. The study recommends possible directions for the development of case law and suggests some practical means to help ensure that international legal requirements are in fact respected in emergencies.
