Public International Law
Public International Law Conventions, Cases and Commentary John M. B. Balouziyeh Around the world, on any given day, international legal disputes, transnational conflicts, tensions at sea, trade negotiations and boundary disputes pose a range of questions under international law. In the current global economy, international law can no longer be the exclusive domain of lawyers. Corporate directors, international civil servants, foreign investment specialists, human rights advocates—even soldiers and military contractors—all demand some knowledge of international law. This is especially true for the hot-button topics of international law that impact not only states but also multinational c...
The Necessity of a Conversation between the Administration and the Individual
Administrative procedure is often perceived as a nuisance by those involved: by individuals seeking an action, service or permission from the state as well as by members of the administration wanting to pursue an action against an individual or refusing to act in her favour. Both sides may view administrative procedure as an unwelcome hurdle on their way to reach their objectives. This perception, however, clouds the value and importance of administrative procedure for the individual in modern legal systems. It is not an end in itself but protects individuals against arbitrary state action. This book explores the connection between international human rights law and administrative procedure. In particular, it discusses potential justifications for obligations of administrative procedure under international human rights law, their doctrinal construction, and their implementation as well as the scope of review of courts.

The Requirement of Consultation with Indigenous Peoples in the ILO
In The Requirement of Consultation with Indigenous Peoples in the ILO, María Victoria Cabrera Ormaza examines the law-making and interpretive practice of the International Labour Organization (ILO) relating to indigenous peoples with a particular focus on the consultation requirement established by Article 6 of ILO Convention No. 169. Taking into account both the mandate and institutional characteristics of the ILO, the author explains how the ILO understands the notion of consultation with indigenous peoples and outlines the flaws in its approach. Through a comprehensive analysis of state practice and human rights jurisprudence concerning indigenous peoples, the author explores the normative impact of ILO Convention No. 169, while revisiting the ILO’s potential to help harmonize different interpretations of the consultation requirement.

International Law in the Transition to Peace
This book proposes a normative framework specifically designed for the complex and legally uncertain time period between armed conflicts and peace. As such, it contributes both to the furthering of a jus post bellum framework, and to enhanced legal clarity in complex and legally uncertain environments. This, in turn, contributes to strengthened protection engagements, and thus to improved prospects of enabling sustainable peace and security in both national and international perspectives. The book offers a novel but persuasive argument for a legal framework specific for transitional environments. Such legal framework, it is argued, is warranted in order to enable legal clarity to contemporar...
