Book The Swiss Press and Foreign Affairs in World War II  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Swiss Press and Foreign Affairs in World War II Classic Reprint written by Frederick H. Hartmann and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Swiss Press and Foreign Affairs in World War II Most people know three facts about Switzer land: that it is mountainous, beautiful, and neutral. Surprisingly, in view of the number of tourists who have visited Switzerland through the years and the interest shown by them in things Swiss, little scholarly material on that country, its institutions, or its policies, has found its way into American libraries. Even among the serious studies on Swiss foreign policy and Swiss foreign relations there is a pronounced tendency toward a moralistic-legalistic flavor. As a result there is relatively little in print which attempts a hard-headed survey of the foreign policy problems facing Switzerland. Never in recent times have these problems been more acute than in the years when Hitler ruled in Germany, especially in the period after the actual outbreak of World War II. These problems reached a climax following the Fall of France when Switzerland became a small island of democracy and freedom virtually surrounded by an Axis iron ring. In this precarious con dition the Swiss press and its content took on a special importance and became a Vital aspect of Swiss foreign relations. It is to this subject that the following study is devoted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Oxford Handbook of Comparative Foreign Relations Law

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Comparative Foreign Relations Law written by Curtis A. Bradley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-07 with total page 992 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Oxford Handbook ambitiously seeks to lay the groundwork for the relatively new field of comparative foreign relations law. Comparative foreign relations law compares and contrasts how nations, and also supranational entities (for example, the European Union), structure their decisions about matters such as entering into and exiting from international agreements, engaging with international institutions, and using military force, as well as how they incorporate treaties and customary international law into their domestic legal systems. The legal materials that make up a nation's foreign relations law can include constitutional law, statutory law, administrative law, and judicial precedent, among other areas. This book consists of 46 chapters, written by leading authors from around the world. Some of the chapters are empirically focused, others are theoretical, and still others contain in-depth case studies. In addition to being an invaluable resource for scholars working in this area, the book should be of interest to a wide range of lawyers, judges, and law students. Foreign relations law issues are addressed regularly by lawyers working in foreign ministries, and globalization has meant that domestic judges, too, are increasingly confronted by them. In addition, private lawyers who work on matters that extend beyond their home countries often are required to navigate issues of foreign relations law. An increasing number of law school courses in comparative foreign relations law are also now being developed, making this volume an important resource for students as well. Comparative foreign relations law is a newly emerging field of study and teaching, and this volume is likely to become a key reference work as the field continues to develop.

Book The Role of Swiss Neutrality in the Context of Supporting Economic Sanctions of the European Union

Download or read book The Role of Swiss Neutrality in the Context of Supporting Economic Sanctions of the European Union written by Florian Ramos and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-08-12 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 2.0, Catholic University Eichstätt-Ingolstadt, language: English, abstract: This paper aims to examine the role of neutrality in Swiss foreign policy as some cases of foreign policy behaviour raises questions left to be answered. Focus is given on EU-foreign policy decisions concerning economic sanctions. The role of neutrality in this particular context would suggest not to follow EU sanctions since the country neither is a member of the Euro-pean Union, nor of the European Economic Area (EEA). Switzerland, furthermore, is not bound by international law to join economic sanctions of the EU. Yet, the country’s interest involves a broader spectrum of factors to be considered within its role of neutrality. The main puzzle this paper further tries to solve is concerned with economic sanctions of the EU which have been implemented by the Swiss federal government. Those sanctions mostly originate from external factors that pose threats to international, regional or domestic security. Violations of international law or aggressive foreign policy behavior also represent causes to enforce sanctions as a form of protest. Economic sanctions, thus, either target a national economy as a whole and/or certain individuals, enterprises and/or institutions in order to weaken economic or political positions. Establishing trade embargos, cutting financial aid or seizing foreign assets are named as examples. This approach is often used as a non-violent means in modern foreign policy. The EU as a political union established norms to meet common foreign policy decisions in which economic sanctions are regularly enforced. The above-mentioned EU sanctions, adopted by Switzerland, leave the following questions concerning the Swiss role of neutrality: 1. What is the definition of neutrality? 2. Does the role of neutrality implicate restrictions in joining other countries’ foreign policy stances? 3. On what grounds did Switzerland enforce economic sanctions originally established by the EU? The Swiss foreign policy stance on neutrality has long played a crucial in the nation’s history. Since the Congress of Vienna in 1815, Swiss neutrality has officially been recognized by in-ternational law. This particular foreign policy stance may have contributed to the economic and democratic development of the nation as Switzerland stayed neutral in both World Wars. The exact role of neutrality, however, has experienced frequent adjustments as the term might not indicate a clear strategy in foreign policy behavior.
