Book The War Guilt Problem and the Ligue des droits de l homme  1914 1944

Download or read book The War Guilt Problem and the Ligue des droits de l homme 1914 1944 written by Norman Ingram and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The War Guilt Problem and the Ligue des droits de l'homme is a significant new volume from Norman Ingram, addressing the history of the Ligue des droits de l'homme (LDH), an organisation founded in 1898 at the height of the Dreyfus Affair and which lay at the very centre of French Republican politics in the era of the two world wars. Ingram posits that the Ligue's inability to resolve the question of war guilt from the Great War was what led to its decline by 1937, well before the Nazi invasion of May 1940. As well as developing our understanding of how the issue of war origins and war guilt transfixed the LDH from 1914 down to the Second World War, this volume also explores the aetiology of French pacifism, expanding on the differences between French and Anglo-American pacifism. It argues that from 1916 onwards, one can see a principled dissent from the Union sacrée war effort that occurred within mainstream French Republicanism and not on the syndicalist or anarchist fringes. Based on substantial research in a large number of French archives, primarily in the papers of the LDH which were repatriated to France from the former Soviet Union in late 2001, but also on considerable new research in the German archives, the book proposes a new explanatory model to help us understand some of the choices made in Vichy France, moving beyond the usual triptych of collaboration, resistance or accommodation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the Liber Amicorum, dedicated to Professor Budislav Vukas, his colleagues and former students have contributed essays on topical issues of contemporary international law, primarily in the fields that were the focus of Professor Vukas’s interest during his long-lasting academic and international career at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Law, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, the International Labour Organization, the Institut de Droit International and many other law schools and international institutions and organizations. The essays in this collection, thus, deal with current developments concerning the subjects of international law (i.a. jurisdictional immunities of states, responsibility of states, international organizations, other non-state entities), the law of the sea (i.a. jurisdictional zones, delimitation, piracy, underwater cultural heritage protection, fisheries, land-locked states), human rights law, including minorities’ protection (i.a. European Court of Human Rights, humanitarian assistance, protection in the event of disasters, social and labour rights, rights of the child), and dispute settlement (i.a. International Court of Justice, International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, arbitration, diplomatic means). Of the 49 essays written by scholars and practitioners from different parts of the world six are in French.

Book Extraits cl  s de jurisprudence   cour europ  enne des Droits de l Homme

Download or read book Extraits cl s de jurisprudence cour europ enne des Droits de l Homme written by Gilles Dutertre and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La première requête transmise à la Commission européenne des Droits de l'Homme date de 1955 et la Cour européenne des Droits de l'Homme a rendu son premier arrêt en 1961. La publication de tous ces arrêts et décisions représente plusieurs centaines de volumes, une abondance qui en rend la consultation parfois difficile. L'auteur de présent ouvrage - juriste - extrait l'essentiel de cette vaste jurisprudence pour la rassembler en un volume unique. En effet, celui-ci représente pour chaque article de la Convention, les passages clés d'arrêts de la Cour et de certaines décisions de la Commission, assortis de leurs commentaires. L'objectif est de fournir, en un seul document, le maximum de citations d'arrêts en une consultation concrète et directe. Ce livre offre ainsi un accès "pédagogique", synthétique et clair à la jurisprudence de la Cour du Conseil de l'Europe. Par ailleurs, une table des matières détaillée et un index donnent au lecteur différentes voies d'accès à cet ouvrage, qui devient ainsi un outil indispensable tant pour le néophyte que pour le spécialiste plus expérimenté de la Convention.

Download or read book The Right to Life written by Christian Tomuschat and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-03-08 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The right to life stands at the heart of human rights protection. Individuals cannot enjoy any of the rights guaranteed to them unless their physical existence is ensured. All human rights instrument list the right to life as the first one of their safeguards. Nonetheless, in many situations human life finds itself under structural threat. Although obligated by law to protect the right to life, State authorities time and again engage in deliberate acts of killing. Fortunately, international review bodies have devised many imaginative counter-strategies. Another one of those structural threats is global warming. Obviously, armed conflict puts human life inevitably at risk; the limits of the ‘license to kill’ given by the laws of war must be scrupulously observed.

Book Lexicon Of Human Rights   Les D  finitions des Droits de l Homme

Download or read book Lexicon Of Human Rights Les D finitions des Droits de l Homme written by Cédric Viale and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-10-31 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains terms often found in international human rights instruments together with clear, authentic, objective and easily understandable definitions of them. Human rights are so fundamental and so important for everyone that all human rights documents should be understood by anyone, old or young, educated or uneducated, expert or non-expert. Yet many human rights conventions, declarations, instruments and volumes and papers are extremely hard to comprehend or are easily misunderstood because certain expressions and terms are not clearly defined, or are written in such a way that only those familiar with UN jargon can understand. This publication is a useful tool for those who face such difficulty in understanding UN human rights documents and other texts. The volume is easy to use, yet rich in detail, and will be an indispensable tool for practitioners, researchers and students of human rights law.
