The first three volumes of the World Court Digest cover the periods 1986 to 1990, 1991 to 1995 and 1996 to 2000. We are happy to issue the fourth volume, covering the period from 2001 to 2005. We hope that this new Digest will be welcome to all those interested in the case law of the International Court of Justice. We are, of course, aware that nowadays the decisions of the Court are easily accessible through electronic data systems. However, there is no systematic analysis available in the form presented by the World Court Digest. Therefore, the Digest will be useful for those who wish to find the most recent position of the Court on a particular issue of international law. As the three previous volumes, also this fourth volume will be made available through electronic data on the homepage of the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law. The first five years of the new century have been a busy period for the Court due to its continuing heavy caseload. The cases concerned a variety of legal issues reaching from the use of force and self-defence to questions of land and maritime boundary delimitation, immunity, consular matters, revision of judgments and the effect of provisional measures. The parties to the cases were States from all parts of the world demonstrating the general acceptance of the Court.

How do traditional church and state relations, developed within Christian legal orders, respond to Muslim immigration and religious diversification? Focusing on Great Britain and Germany, this question is treated from a comparative perspective in this book. After looking at the history of establishment and disestablishment in Great Britain and Scandinavia, the book's contributions cover specific aspects, such as the individual's legal protection in religious courts, employment disputes, church autonomy, the role of religious communities in public life, and the legal status of Muslim communities in particular. Additionally, some of the essays show how the relationship is influenced by the European Convention on Human Rights. The book is the result of a research project that forms part of the Cluster of Excellency "Religion and Politics" of the University of Munster, Germany.

Erstmals seit Anfang der 70er Jahre behandelt die Arbeit den von der VN-Satzung fur regionale Aktivitaten der Friedenssicherung gezogenen rechtlichen Rahmen anhand der jungsten Praxis des Sicherheitsrats und bestimmter Regionalorganisationen (u.a. ECOWAS, GUS, OAS, OSZE, NATO, WEU). Der Begriff der Regionalorganisation, insbesondere im Verhaltnis zu Organisationen kollektiver Selbstverteidigung, die Moeglichkeiten regionaler Friedenssicherung in den Bereichen friedliche Streitbeilegung, Durchfuhrung von Zwangsmassnahmen und die Entsendung von Friedenstruppen werden eroertert. Ausserdem wird die neuerdings verstarkt stattfindende Zusammenarbeit zwischen Vereinten Nationen und Regionalorganisationen dargestellt.

Each financial crisis calls for - by its novelty and the mechanisms it shares with preceding crises - appropriate means to analyze financial risks. In Extreme Financial Risks and Asset Allocation, the authors present in an accessible and timely manner the concepts, methods, and techniques that are essential for an understanding of these risks in an environment where asset prices are subject to sudden, rough, and unpredictable changes. These phenomena, mathematically known as "jumps", play an important role in practice. Their quantitative treatment is generally tricky and is sparsely tackled in similar books. One of the main appeals of this book lies in its approachable and concise presentation of the ad hoc mathematical tools without sacrificing the necessary rigor and precision.This book contains theories and methods which are usually found in highly technical mathematics books or in scattered, often very recent, research articles. It is a remarkable pedagogical work that makes these difficult results accessible to a large readership. Researchers, Masters and PhD students, and financial engineers alike will find this book highly useful.

The importance of the law of international organizations is continually increasing. This textbook, first published in German, explains and analyses not only the structures of international organizations in general, but also focuses on the interplay between the creation of institutional structures and important substantive areas of public international law. Thus, in the first and second parts of the book the general aspects of the law of international organizations are surveyed, whereas in the third part international security, human rights protection, trade, development and environmental protection are analyzed in terms of the interplay between substantive and institutional law. This third part is built on the assumption that the law of international organizations needs to be studied in action, i.e. by looking at highly institutionalized areas of international law as a way of analyzing the mutual influences between institutional and substantive international law. In fact all important parts of international law are today institutionalized in different international organizations, a phenomenon which is reflected in the title.Up to now, there has been no other book on international law which brings together institutional and substantive aspects in a comparable manner. This text book is aimed at students of the law of international organizations but also to students in the social sciences, above all, political science. It will also be useful to practitioners in the field of international institutions.

Im Zuge der Umsetzung der Arhus-Konvention und der Richtlinie 2003/35/EG uber die Offentlichkeitsbeteiligung und den Zugang zu Gerichten in Umweltangelegenheiten ist die Einfuhrung einer Verbandsklage vorgesehen. Hierdurch gerat der am subjektiven Recht orientierte deutsche Verwaltungsrechtsschutz unter Veranderungsdruck. Der vorliegende Band zeigt aus der Sicht von Wissenschaft und Praxis die Gestaltungsmoglichkeiten auf, die dem deutschen Gesetzgeber bei der Umsetzung von Konvention und Richtlinie verbleiben. Er beruht auf einer rechtspolitischen Diskussionsveranstaltung, welche die Herausgeber in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Verband der Chemischen Industrie (VCI) organisiert haben.

Abraham David Christian's diverse points of reference for his sculpture range from African totems to the refined representations of goddesses in southeast Asia, as well as European modernists such as Brancusi and Giacometti. "The Way" presents his new monumental bronze sculptures, which synthesize these precedents into architecturally inflected, stacked, columnar forms.
