About Law: An Introduction
Honore Tony,Here is a simple introduction to the intellectual challenges presented by law in the western secular tradition written by one of that tradition's most revered and eminent scholars. This book provides the intelligent student contemplating a career in law with a brief yet comprehensive introduction to the subject. It also makes an ideal starting point for the general reader who is curious to explore the intellectual interest of the subject. Treating not just British law, but the whole western tradition of law, Professor Honoré guides the reader through eleven topics which straddle various branches of the law, including constitutional and criminal law, property, and contracts. He also explores moral and historical aspects of the law, including a discussion of justice and the difference between civil and common law systems. The law, Honoré argues, is mainly concerned with the question of obedience to authority, and establishing the situations in which obedience is required and those in which it may be waived ought to be the central concern of all legal theorists.

A Handbook on Accession to the WTO. A WTO Secretariat Publication
Peter John Williams,The Handbook provides a detailed explanation and analysis of the process whereby governments become Members of the WTO. The WTO Agreement, which came into force on 1 January, 1995, provides few details on how this process is to take place. Consequently, the steps in the detailed negotiations leading up to access have evolved through the actual negotiations for governments which have become Members of the WTO since 1995. This handbook provides an account of how the process evolved and in offering details on the process as it is now applied. Moreover, the input of the WTO Secretariat into the preparation of the guide provides information not available until now to anyone outside the Secretariat. The Secretariat has supported production of this handbook in the hope it will serve as a useful source of reference for officials from acceding governments, WTO Members, academia, and the general public.

International Court of Justice: Process, Practice And Procedure First Edition
D. W. Bowett (Editor),The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has a dual role: to settle legal disputes between States (contentious cases) and to give advisory opinions on legal questions referred to it by authorized UN organs and specialized agencies. The process is governed by the UN Charter, the Statute of the Court, the Rules of Court, and Practice Directions. Process and Jurisdiction Parties: Only States may be parties to contentious cases. International organizations can provide information but cannot bring a case or be a formal party. Acceptance of Jurisdiction: The ICJ is only competent to hear a dispute if the States involved have accepted its jurisdiction. This can occur through: A special agreement for a specific dispute. A jurisdictional clause in a treaty. Reciprocal declarations accepting the Court's jurisdiction as compulsory. Advisory Opinions: These are not binding but carry significant legal and moral weight. They are requested by UN organs (like the General Assembly or Security Council) or specialized agencies on legal questions.

The Oxford Handbook of Comparative Law. 2nd ed.
Mathias Reimann (Editor), Reinhard Zimmermann (Editor),This fully revised and updated second edition of The Oxford Handbook of Comparative Law provides a wide-ranging and diverse critical survey of comparative law at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It summarizes and evaluates a discipline that is time-honoured but not easily understood in all its dimensions. In the current era of globalization, this discipline is more relevant than ever, both on the academic and on the practical level. The Handbook is divided into three main sections. Section I surveys how comparative law has developed and where it stands today in various parts of the world. This includes not only traditional model jurisdictions, such as France, Germany, and the United States, but also other regions like Eastern Europe, East Asia, and Latin America. Section II then discusses the major approaches to comparative law - its methods, goals, and its relationship with other fields, such as legal history, economics, and linguistics. Finally, section III deals with the status of comparative studies in over a dozen subject matter areas, including the major categories of private, economic, public, and criminal law.

The Three Branches. A Comparative Model of Separation of Powers
Christoph Moellers,The idea of the separation of powers is still popular in much political and constitutional discourse, though its meaning for the modern state remains unclear and contested. This book develops a new, comprehensive, and systematic account of the principle. It then applies this new concept to legal problems of different national constitutional orders, the law of the European Union, and international institutional law. It connects an argument from normative political theory with phenomena taken from comparative constitutional law. The book argues that the conflict between individual liberty and democratic self-determination that is characteristic of modern constitutionalism is proceduralized through the establishment of different governmental branches.
