Book Economic Sanctions in EU Private International Law

Download or read book Economic Sanctions in EU Private International Law written by Tamás Szabados and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic sanctions are instruments of foreign policy. However, they can also affect legal relations between private parties – principally in contract. In such cases, the court or arbitration tribunal seized must decide whether to give effect to the economic sanction in question. Private international law functions as a 'filter', transmitting economic sanctions that originate in public law to the realm of private law. The aim of this book is to examine how private international law rules can influence the enforcement of economic sanctions and their related foreign policy objectives. A coherent EU foreign policy position – in addition to promoting legal certainty and predictability – would presuppose a uniform approach not only concerning the economic sanctions of the EU, but also with regard to the restrictive measures imposed by third countries. However, if we examine in detail the application of economic sanctions by Member States' courts and arbitral tribunals, we find a somewhat different picture. This book argues that this can be explained in part by the divergence of private international law approaches in the Member States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Economic sanctions are an instrument of foreign policy. They may, however, affect the legal - first of all contractual - relations between private parties. In such a case, the court or arbitration tribunal seized has to decide whether to give effect or not to the economic sanction. It is private international law that functions as a 'filter' and transmits economic sanctions having a public law origin to the realm of private law. The aim of this book is to examine how private international law rules can influence the enforcement of economic sanctions and the related foreign policy objectives. A coherent EU foreign policy position as well as legal certainty and predictability would suppose a uniform approach not only concerning the economic sanctions of the EU, but also with regard to the restrictive measures imposed by third countries. However, if we examine in detail the application of economic sanctions by the courts of the Member States and arbitral tribunals, we find a somewhat different picture. It will become obvious that one of the reasons for this is the divergence of the private international law approaches in the Member States"--

Book Economic Sanctions and International Law

Download or read book Economic Sanctions and International Law written by Matthew Happold and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years sanctions have become an increasingly popular tool of foreign policy, not only at the multilateral level (at the UN), but also regionally (the EU in particular) and unilaterally. The nature of the measures imposed has also changed: from comprehensive sanctions regimes (discredited since Iraq in the 1990s) to 'targeted' or 'smart' sanctions, directed at specific individuals or entities (through asset freezes and travel bans) or prohibiting particular activities (arms embargoes and export bans). Bringing together scholars, government and private practitioners, Economic Sanctions and International Law provides an overview of recent developments and an analysis of the problems that they have engendered. Chapters examine the contemporary practice of the various actors, and the legality (or otherwise) of their activities. Issues considered include the human rights of persons targeted, and the mechanisms established to challenge their listing; as well as, in cases of sanctions imposed by regional organisations and individual states, the rights of third States and their nationals. The book will be of interest to scholars and practitioners of international law and politics.

  • Release : 2013
  • ISBN : 9781780681412
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book EU Sanctions written by Iain Cameron and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the European Union, the famous "Kadi" cases have generated a wealth of articles dealing with the legal problems involved in EU implementation of UN Security Council sanctions. Less attention has been devoted to the numerous legal problems involved in the EU's own "autonomous" sanctions system. The subject is nevertheless topical, since there is a growing use of sanctions and the legal basis for sanctions has been changed with the Lisbon Treaty. EU sanctions are used both against regimes and against suspected terrorist financing. But these sanctions have developed "organically," without sufficient thought being given to certain basic issues (inter alia concerning procedural fairness). This has resulted in considerable litigation before the Court of Justice (CJEU). The new legal basis and the recent judgments from the CJEU have solved some difficulties, but "taking sanctions seriously" means new problems for national implementation, spanning a variety of areas: criminal law, constitutional law, international law, and European law. The essays in this book, written by distinguished scholars in their respective fields, deal with some of these issues: How should we go about measuring the impact(s) of targeted sanctions? * How coherent are these "administrative" measures of blacklisting with other existing and proposed EU measures in justice and home affairs promoting the criminal law model for dealing with the problem of terrorism (investigation, trial, conviction, and punishment/confiscation of assets)? * How can the problems caused for fair trial by the use of intelligence material be solved? * If we can (or must) continue to have sanctions in the area of terrorist financing, can they be made compatible with fundamental principles of national criminal law and criminal policy? * How does a system of "composite" decision-making (when the measure is partly national and partly at the EU level) avoid the risk that gaps arise in systems of legal protection? * What is the spillover effect of "over broad" quasi-criminal legislation directed at organizations, in the constitutional/human rights of freedom of expression and association? * How do EU sanctions fit into, and compare to, national systems for the proscription of terrorist organizations? * Should the same legal safeguards be applicable both for "regime" sanctions and anti-terrorist sanctions?

Download or read book International Law in Motion written by Mohsen Mohebi and published by Presses universitaires de Louvain. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: François Rigaux, who died in 2013, was a great figure of Belgian legal scholarship and left a deep impression on many generations of students from Louvain. Essentially known for his pioneering work in private international law, his legal culture was by no means limited to that field, while his critical thinking on the law radiated far beyond Europe. A man of strong-held political convictions, he fought many battles, which led him along the paths of public international law in search of a fairer world. Counsel for the Islamic Republic of Iran before the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal and judge ad hoc appointed by Iran in a case brought against the United States before the International Court of Justice, he directed at Louvain the doctoral research of several Iranian researchers who later became important figures in the Iranian academic and administrative world, among them is Prof. Mohsen Mohebi the co-editor of this Mélanges. Initiated in Tehran, this bilingual volume of homage brings together twenty contributions on the work of François Rigaux, the jurisprudence of the Iran-United States Claims Tribunal as well as various current issues in public international law, including that of economic sanctions.
