Territorial disputes remain a significant source of tension in
international relations, representing an important share of
interstate cases brought before international tribunals and courts.
Analysing the international law applicable to the assessment of
territorial claims and the settlement of related disputes, this
Research Handbook provides a systematic exposition and in-depth
discussions of the relevant key concepts, principles, rules, and
techniques. Combining extensive knowledge from across international
law, Marcelo Kohen and Mamadou Hebie expertly unite a multinational
group of contributors to provide a go-to resource for the
settlement of territorial disputes. The different chapters discuss
the process through which states establish sovereignty over a
territory, and review the different titles of territorial
sovereignty, the relation between titles and effectivites, as well
as the relevance of state conduct. Select chapters focus on the
impact of foundational principles of international law such as the
principle of territorial integrity, the right of self-determination
and the prohibition of the threat or use of force, on territorial
disputes. Finally, technical rules that are crucial for the
assessment of territorial claims, especially the techniques of
intertemporal law and critical date, as well as evidentiary rules,
are presented. An essential resource for practitioners,
international law academics and public officials including judges
and arbitrators, this Research Handbook is a highly original
collection of scholarship and research on territorial disputes and
their settlement. Contributors include: M.J. Aznar, T. Christakis,
A. Constantinides, K. Del Mar, G. Distefano, M. Hebie, P. Klein, M.
Kohen, V. Koutroulis, S. Lee, G. Nesi, K. Parlett
