The twenty-five years following the conclusion of the Cold War witnessed an unprecedented intensification of the usage of UN sanctions. This Research Handbook maps how UN sanctions multiplied and diversified during this period and analyses the substantive and procedural transformations to UN sanctions regimes, through the lens of international law. Expert contributors explore different types of UN sanctions regimes, most notably counter-terrorism regimes, counter-proliferation regimes and conflict-resolution regimes. They trace developments across these regimes, such as increased references to international legal standards in sanctions design and procedure as well as interplays with other processes and informal arrangements. Key chapters also specifically examine synergies between UN sanctions and unilateral measures and explore the different legal frameworks that shape and govern these respective regimes. Offering a holistic study of UN sanctions, this Research Handbook identifies cross-cutting issues and common challenges in order to provide an outlook on the future of UN sanctions in a 21st century setting. Comprehensive and engaging, students and scholars of international law and human rights law, as well as international relations more widely, will find this book an essential companion. Its forward-thinking approach will also benefit legal practitioners at the UN, other international organisations and law firms. Contributors include: M. Azeredo da Silveira, K. Boon, A. Broodryk, C. Cai, D. Dam-de Jong, E. De Brabandere, A. du Plessis, P.-E. Dupont, S.E. Eckert, W. Ferdinandusse, L. Ginsborg, M. Happold, D. Holloway, D. Hovell, D. Joyner, M. Kanetake, J. Levitt, A. Mitchell, P.

Few events have influenced our global order as intensely as the events of September 11, 2001. At various levels in the past ten years, persistent attempts have been made to address the threat of terrorism, yet there is still urgent need for a joint and coherent application of a variety of regulations relating to international criminal justice co-operation, the use of force and international human rights law. In an important contribution to international discourse, Larissa van den Herik and Nico Schrijver examine the relationship between different branches of international law and their applicability to the problem of terrorism and counter-terrorism. Using a unique combination of academic perspectives, practitioners' insights and a comprehensive three-part approach, Counter-terrorism Strategies in a Fragmented International Legal Order offers sound policy recommendations alongside thorough analysis of the state of international law regarding terrorism and provides fresh insights against the backdrop of recent practice.
International criminal law is shaped by the influence of individual scholars and the impact of specific rulings and legal frameworks. This volume provides a fresh perspective on the table of contents of international criminal law. It revisits the sources, treatment and reception of doctrine and jurisprudence from an inter-generational perspective. It analyses the role of scholars and practitioners (e.g, Arendt,Damaska, Cassese) on the conceptualisation of law and jurisprudence. Then, it assesses the goals and scope of international criminal law, including contemporary developments relating to the interplay between international and domestic jurisdiction (e.g., verticality, complementarity, gravity), the role of actors (e.g., state crime, corporations, private military companies) and crime definitions (aggression, child recruitment). This is followed by a review of key concepts of individual responsibility (e.g, joint criminal enterprise, co-perpetration, conspiracy) and procedural law (e.g., role of witnesses and victims, arrest). Geared to academics, practitioners and NGOs
