What legal principles govern the external exercise of the public
power of states within common law legal systems? Foreign Relations
Law tackles three fundamental issues: the distribution of the
foreign relations power between the organs of government; the
impact of the foreign relations power on individual rights; and the
treatment of the foreign state within the municipal legal system.
Focusing on the four Anglo-Commonwealth states (the United Kingdom,
Australia, Canada and New Zealand), McLachlan examines the
interaction between public international law and national law and
demonstrates that the prime function of foreign relations law is
not to exclude foreign affairs from legal regulation, but to
allocate jurisdiction and determine applicable law in cases
involving the external exercise of the public power of states:
between the organs of the state; amongst the national legal systems
of different states; and between the national and the international
legal systems.
