About Reflections On International Law From The Low
Product Description This work brings together 28 essays specially written by international lawyers based in or associated with The Netherlands and Belgium to honour Professor Paul de Waart on his retirement from the Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam. The experience and insight derived from his careers as journalist, foreign affairs officer, diplomat, pragmatic administrator and law professor have made him a distinguished scholar. His work has resulted in a host of academic publications on contemporary international law issues. The topics are clustered around the main foci of the research interests of Paul de Waart, including: international economic law and development, human rights, international criminal jurisdiction, the United Nations and peace and security, the protection of cultural property and the environment, and international dispute settlement. The international law communities in the Low Countries are linked through many bonds such as language (Dutch and Flemish), legal history, common teachers and frequent inter-university contacts. As such the book may be viewed as a reflection of international law studies as they are currently practised in these two countries. Review ' ...the book is a stimulating collection of essays on contemporary problems of international law and constitutes a worthy tribute to Professor de Waart. The book is particularly valuable in that it presents a spectrum of problems which are important, controversial and not well known.' Austrian view of International and European Law, (1998.
