International Institutional Reform: 2005 Hague Joint Conference on Issues of International Law

Editat de Agata A. Fijalkowski
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 ian 2007
‘International Institutional Reform’ was the theme of the 2005 Hague Joint Conference on Contemporary Issues of International Law, which formed the basis of this book. This international Conference was attended by an interesting mix of established authorities and promising newcomers, practitioners and academics, international institution “insiders” and ‘users’, which resulted in a lively debate. The contributions of the forty-five speakers and the debate are included in the book.

The topics cover a wide range of international institutions and address questions such as: Are international institutions that were for the most part created in the 20th century, suited to dealing with the challenges of the 21st century? What is the self-reforming or self-cleansing power of international organizations? How much can be managed by relying on the implied powers doctrine? Which international institutions have been particularly successful in achieving their objectives and why? Which institutions have proved to be failures and ought to be scrapped forthwith?The final chapter includes the results of the workshops, conclusions and recommendations, and the interesting debate on effective reform of international institutions.The book is therefore highly recommended to everyone – academics, practitioners and policy-makers – working at international organizations or cooperating with them.

The Seventh Hague Joint Conference was organized by the ‘The Hague Joint Conferences on International Law’ Foundation, in which the American Society of International Law, the Netherlands Society of International Law and the T.M.C. Asser Institute (The Hague) participate. The Conference was held in The Hague.

Descriere

The 7th Hague Joint Conference in 2005 considered the main challenges that international law faces concerning the reform of institutions that carry great authority, and reflect long-standing tradition and far-reaching effect. International Institutional Reform provides an overview of the main subjects that the conference panels dealt with, such as whether certain international organizations lend themselves to reform; the role of the Security Council; the European Union and institutional reform; and the inter-play between national, regional and international courts. The book presents a valuable overview of the wide range of topical subjects covered by leading scholars in the field. Further, the reader is challenged with innovative and insightful suggestions concerning reforms. The energy, enthusiasm and passion that were evident at the conference discussions are documented here, as well as demonstrating the creativity and innovation among international law scholars and practitioners.
