Two major factors brought about the establishment of the
Netherlands Yearbook of International Law in 1970: demand for the
publication of national practice in international law, and the
desirability for legal practitioners, state representatives and
international lawyers to have access to the growing amount of
available data, in the form of articles, notes etc. The
documentation section of the NYIL contains an extensive review of
Dutch state practice from the parliamentary year prior to
publication, an account of developments relating to treaties and
other international agreements to which the Netherlands is a party,
summaries of Netherlands judicial decisions involving questions of
public international law (many of which are not published
elsewhere), lists of Dutch publications in the field and extracts
from relevant municipal legislation. Although the NYIL has a
distinctive national character, it is published in English and the
editors do not adhere to any geographical limitations when deciding
upon the inclusion of articles.

Modem international organisations are complex, multi-faceted
institutions that are I As a corol transforming the way in which
States comply with international rules. lary of that transformation
independent action by individual states is under pres sure from
other states in a range of cooperative regimes that make up modem
international society.2 The World Trade Organization (WTO)3
exemplifies this trans formation. It has emerged from its former
institutional framework of the General Agreement on Tariffs and
Trade (GATT) into a fully-fledged international economic 4
organisation, with a specific mechanism for the settlement of
disputes and a strong ethos of enforcement. Notwithstanding such
developments, there is no satisfactory theory to explain what
determines a compliance decision in WTO law or to account for the
fact that 5 Instead, there is a general assumption that some
Members choose not to comply. WTO Members are in compliance with
their obligations and, more particularly with decisions which have
been adopted by the Dispute Settlement Body. The issue of
compliance with multilateral treaty regimes has been of consider
able interest to political scientists and has spurned a burgeoning
literature at the 6 intersection of international relations and
international law, often arising from enquiries into the
effectiveness of international regimes. In the context ofmultilat 7
eral treaty regimes two different perspectives on compliance have
emerged in the 1. J.E. Alvarez, International Organizations as
