Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crime contre l'humanité, patrimoine commun de l'humanité, intervention d'humanité, considérations d'humanité, mais aussi dignité humaine, sécurité humaine, développement humain : l'humanité imprègne désormais le droit. Cette étude se propose d'analyser la portée de ce concept dans l'ordre juridique international. Le but est d'identifier les effets normatifs de l'humanité et d'examiner ses implications institutionnelles. Il s'agit notamment de préciser la manière dont l'humanité s'articule aux autres concepts, en particulier à celui de souveraineté. La présente recherche constitue la première thèse consacrée à l'examen systématique du concept d'humanité en droit international. L'idée défendue dans cet ouvrage est que le concept d'humanité complexifie l'ordre juridique international plus qu'il ne le bouleverse : les effets de ce concepts sont tangibles en droit international mais ils ne sont pas exclusifs. L'humanité n'entraîne pas la disparition de l'Etat ; en revanche, elle contribue à une redéfinition de la souveraineté. En effet, l'humanité est un principe fondamental du droit international mais elle n'est pas une personne juridique. Au titre de principe fondamental, l'humanité travaille en profondeur les droits de l'homme, le droit humanitaire, le droit de la bioéthique, le droit pénal international, le droit de l'environnement, le droit des espaces ; elle bouscule également le droit des traités et de la responsabilité internationale. Mais l'humanité reste un sujet passif du droit international public : titulaire de droits, elle est dépourvue d'une représentation qui lui permettrait de les exercer. D n'est ni possible, ni souhaitable de mettre sur pied une institution centralisée qui incarnerait l'humanité. Les tentatives juridiques en ce sens n'ont pas porté leurs fruits. Aujourd'hui, ce sont les Etats qui, à titre principal, sont garants des droits de l'humanité. Ce mécanisme, cependant, n'est pas dépourvu d'ambiguïté. Dans l'optique d'une application efficace des droits de l'humanité, la communauté internationale, aujourd'hui communauté d'Etats, doit s'ouvrir à de nouvelles perspectives pour devenir communauté humaine. La gestion des droits de l'humanité doit être le fait d'une pluralité de mandataires.
Download or read book The Law of Humanity Project written by Ukri Soirila and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first comprehensive introduction to the role of humanity in international law, offering a fresh perspective to a discussions with global implications. The 1990s and the first decade of the twenty-first century witnessed the sporadic emergence of a new vision of global law. Although the vision has taken many different forms, all instances of it have been uniform in the attempt of radically altering how we understand international law by seeking to posit the human as the primary subject of the international legal order and humanity as its main source of legitimacy. Together, this book calls these instances “the law of humanity project”. In so doing, it also paints a picture of and critically assesses a particular moment in the history of international law – a moment which may have already come to a sudden end as a consequence of the current populist backlash in world politics, but during which it seemed inevitable that the law of humanity vision would come to play an increasingly important role in world affairs.
Download or read book L humanit saisie par le droit international public written by Catherine Le Bris and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Crime contre l'humanité », « considérations élémentaires d'humanité », « patrimoine commun de l'humanité », mais aussi « dignité humaine », « sécurité humaine », « développement humain »... : l' « humanité » imprègne désormais le droit international. Cette étude se propose d'analyser, au moyen de la méthode de la « dialectique ouverte », la portée de ce concept dans l'ordre juridique international. Il s'agit, en particulier, d'identifier ses effets normatifs et de préciser la manière dont il s'articule aux autres concepts (« souveraineté » notamment). L'idée qui est défendue ici est que l'humanité complexifie l'ordre juridique international, mais ne le bouleverse pas radicalement. En effet, si l'humanité est un principe fondamental du droit international public, elle n'est pas une personne juridique du droit international public. Au titre de principe fondamental, l'humanité travaille en profondeur les droits de l'homme, le droit humanitaire, le droit de la bioéthique, le droit pénal international, le droit de l'environnement, le droit des espaces et bouscule le droit des traités et de la responsabilité internationale. Mais l'humanité reste un sujet passif du droit international public : titulaire de droits, elle est dépourvue d'une représentation qui lui permettrait de les exercer. Il n'est ni possible, ni souhaitable de mettre sur pied une institution centralisée qui incarnerait l'humanité. Aujourd'hui ce sont les Etats qui, à titre principal, sont garants des droits de l'humanité. Cette solution, cependant, n'est pas satisfaisante : la gestion de ces droits doit être le fait d'une pluralité de mandataires, ce qui implique l'existence d'une véritable communauté humaine.
Download or read book Theory of Obligations in International Law written by Cezary Mik and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-05-07 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the fulfilment of international obligations by subjects of this law, this book explores the normative and functional links between the sources and rules of international law on the one hand, and the responsibility for violating international law on the other. In the sphere of law-making, the theory of obligations allows for a more precise and considered formulation of international obligations. It has the potential to enable subjects of international law to behave more rationally, allowing deeper reflection on whether to take on obligations and how to properly perform them. This book proposes a new approach to the issue of the proper operation of international law, with the theory of obligations at its heart. Linking the institutions and concepts of international law into a rational whole, the book offers an analysis of the operation of international law and the behaviour of its subjects to develop a framework for ensuring the ultimate effectiveness of international law. Analysing sources of law including treaties and common law, alongside the resolutions of international organisations, this book demonstrates the practical application of the subject with reference to the jurisprudence of international courts and other bodies. The volume will be of interest to scholars, students, and practitioners concerned with international law – its creation, performance, application, compliance, and enforcement.
Download or read book The Limits of Human Rights written by Bardo Fassbender and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the limits of human rights, and what do these limits mean? This volume engages critically and constructively with this question to provide a distinct contribution to the contemporary discussion on human rights. Fassbender and Traisbach, along with a group of leading experts in the field, examine the issue from multiple disciplinary perspectives, analysing the limits of our current discourse of human rights. It does so in an original way, and without attempting to deconstruct, or deny, human rights. Each contribution is supplemented by an engaging comment which furthers this important discussion. This combination of perspectives paves the way for further thought for scholars, practitioners, students, and the wider public. Ultimately, this volume provides an exceptionally rich spectrum of viewpoints and arguments across disciplines to offer fresh insights into human rights and its limitations.
Download or read book General Principles of Law The Role of the Judiciary written by Laura Pineschi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-22 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role played by domestic and international judges in the “flexibilization” of legal systems through general principles. It features revised papers that were presented at the Annual Conference of the European-American Consortium for Legal Education, held at the University of Parma, Italy, May 2014. This volume is organized in four sections, where the topic is mainly explored from a comparative perspective, and includes case studies. The first section covers theoretical issues. It offers an analysis of principles in shaping Dworkin’s theories about international law, a reflection on the role of procedural principles in defining the role of the judiciary, a view on the role of general principles in transnational judicial communication, a study on the recognition of international law from formal criteria to substantive principles, and an inquiry from the viewpoint of neo-constitutionalism. The second section contains studies on the role of general principles in selected legal systems, including International Law, European Union Law as well as Common Law systems. The third section features an analysis of select legal principles in a comparative perspective, with a particular focus on the comparison between European and American experiences. The fourth and last section explores selected principles in given areas of law, including the misuse of the lex specialis principle in the relationship between international human rights law and international humanitarian law, the role of the judiciary in Poland as regards discrimination for sexual orientation, and the impact of the ECtHR case law on Italian criminal law with regard to the principle of legality. Overall, the book offers readers a thoughtful reflection on how the interpretation, application, and development of general principles of law by the judiciary contribute to the evolution of legal systems at both the domestic and international levels as well as further their reciprocal interactions.

Download or read book Kosovo and the International Community written by Christian Tomuschat and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-25 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATO's air operation against Yugoslavia, undertaken with a view to helping the Kosovo Albanians resist genocide and ethnic cleansing, confronted the international community with a bitter dilemma. In Europe, the choice either to tolerate massive violations of human rights or to infringe the principle of non-use of force, given the absence of explicit authorization by the Security Council, was a challenge never before encountered since the new world order was ushered in by the Charter of the United Nations. This book, a collection of legal essays which emerged from a meeting of members of the French, German, and Polish societies of international law, not only attempts to analyze the Kosovo war from the viewpoint of humanitarian intervention based on the failure of the Rambouillet conference, but also intends to provide an overall picture of the responsibilities incumbent on the international community. Starting with the lifting of Kosovo's autonomy by the Yugoslav federal authorities in 1989/90, it follows the tragic events step by step. Not only are the crimes committed by Yugoslav military units and police as well as by the Kosovo Liberation Army listed in specific detail, an inquiry is also made into NATO's compliance with the applicable standards of humanitarian law. The book concludes with an examination of the future of the province in light of Security Council resolution 1244 of 1999 and the Stability Pact adopted to ensure economic recovery of the entire region.
