This Research Handbook provides a comprehensive and up-to-date
analysis of the international law of jurisdiction and immunities,
illustrating those aspects in which the law of jurisdiction and law
of immunities are mutually interdependent, as well as shedding
light on the implications of that interdependence. With
authoritative contributions from recognized experts, it offers an
impartial perspective on the applicable international law,
independent from any positions held in governmental or other
institutional circles. Authoritative and well-structured, the book
covers all major topics in relation to jurisdiction and immunities,
such as conceptual justifications for jurisdiction and immunities,
extra-territorial jurisdiction, types of available immunities,
normative basis for jurisdiction and immunity claims in various
types of judicial proceedings. It explores the complex questions
arising when a state asserts its jurisdiction over persons that are
based abroad, or are not that state's citizens, or otherwise have
no connection with that state, as well as how tensions are further
heightened when one state tries to assert jurisdiction, in its own
courts, over another state or an international organization such as
the UN. This much-needed Handbook will appeal strongly to academic
researchers and postgraduate students. Civil servants and employees
of international organizations and NGOs will also find it an
invaluable resource. Contributors: J.C. Barker, R. Cryer, E.H.
