Recenzii
Edward Chukwuemeke Okeke is a distinguished international lawyer who has served in legal advisory departments at the World Bank, UNESCO, and the United Nations. His new book, Jurisdictional Immunities of States and International Organizations, is a helpful contribution to the literature of international law. Mr. Okeke sets out the purpose of the book at the outset: 'If you want a vade mecum on the law and practice of jurisdictional immunities of States and international organizations, this is the book'"
Okeke delivers beautifully on what he set out to do, creating a vade mecum on the law and practice of jurisdictional immunities of States and international organisations. ... there is no doubt in the mind of this reviewer that Okeke's book will be on the desk right next to the computer of anybody who sets out to write about the immunity of States and international organisations in the foreseeable future, be it as a student, be it as a scholar, be it as a practitioner, or be it to engage in lofty doctrinal debates in any of these capacities. A wealth of information, diligently collected and analysed, cogently delivered and explained, a true treasure trove. A must have for any decent library of international law and anybody working around this subject.
This well-written book offers a thoughtful, substantive discussion of the main issues of international law and domestic practice concerning the jurisdictional immunities of states and international organizations. Based on extensive research and careful analysis, it deserves to become a standard reference for years to come.
An acute and scholarly update on the law of the Jurisdictional Immunities of States and International Organizations.
This book provides an excellent introduction to the complex and controversial subject of immunity of foreign States and international organizations from suits in national courts, with a special focus on the United States and United Kingdom. Practitioners will find this an especially useful resource.
The importance of privileges and immunities to the functioning of international organizations cannot be overemphasized, and this comprehensible book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the immunity of international organizations from the jurisdiction of national courts. All those who work for, work with, or are interested in international organizations should make sure they have a copy on their desk!
By what authority do courts and tribunals pass judgment on the conduct of sovereigns and international organizations? The ground is well traversed with respect to the former, less so in the case of the latter. The fruit of impressive and wide-ranging research, resolutely giving primacy to experience rather than theory, this book reveals the functional similarities and disparities of the immunities of these two types of entities, and in so doing, leads the reader to a more profound understanding of both.
Jurisdictional Immunities of States and International Organizations, is a helpful contribution to the literature of international law…. The book's central accomplishment remains-a workmanlike enterprise and a good foundation for anyone interested in the topic.
