The Achievements of International Law - Essays in Honour of Robin Churchill (Hardcover): Jacques Hartmann, Urfan Khaliq The Achievements of International Law - Essays in Honour of Robin Churchill (Hardcover)
Jacques Hartmann, Urfan Khaliq
R3,990 Discovery Miles 39 900 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The aim of this collection of essays in Robin Churchill’s honour is to discuss some key examples of the achievements of international law – with the express aim of exploring both what it has achieved and also its limits. This will serve as a response to the two popular but opposite misconceptions about the role of international law. One view is that international law is too weak to improve the World in any significant way. The other view is that international law is a panacea that can be used to rid the world of many of its ills. The book is divided into five distinct parts, each reflecting on what international law has achieved within broadly defined substantive areas. It opens with a discussion on general international law and international human rights law, before exploring the law of the sea and fisheries. It then looks at international environmental law before finally examining the use of force and international criminal law. The chapters and the collection overall will provide a contrast to the popular misconceptions about international law by offering examples of both the success and also limitations of it as a system.

Jurisdictional Exceptionalisms - Islamic Law, International Law and Parental Child Abduction (Hardcover): Anver M Emon, Urfan... Jurisdictional Exceptionalisms - Islamic Law, International Law and Parental Child Abduction (Hardcover)
Anver M Emon, Urfan Khaliq
R3,068 Discovery Miles 30 680 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Jurisdictional Exceptionalisms examines the legal issues associated with a parent's forced removal of their children to reside in another country following relationship dissolution or divorce. Through an analysis of Public and Private International Laws, and Islamic law - historical and as implemented in contemporary Muslim Family Law States - the authors uncover distinct legal lexicons that centre children's interests in premodern Islamic legal doctrines, modern State practice, and multilateral conventions on children. While legal advocates and policy makers pursue global solutions to parental child abduction, this volume identifies fundamental obstacles, including the absence of shared understandings of jurisdiction. By examining the relevant law and practice, the study exposes the polarised politics embedded in the technical legal rules on jurisdiction. Presenting a new, innovative method in comparative legal history, the book examines the beliefs, values, histories, doctrines, institutions and practices of legal systems presumed to be in conflict with one another.

International Human Rights Law Documents (Paperback): Urfan Khaliq International Human Rights Law Documents (Paperback)
Urfan Khaliq
R1,026 Discovery Miles 10 260 Ships in 9 - 15 working days

This accessible collection of important international human rights documents is an essential resource for students and researchers of international human rights law. In addition to standard instruments such as the Universal Declaration, the 1966 United Nations Covenants and the European Convention and its Protocols, the volume also features topics and documents such as all core UN human rights treaties and their protocols, key international labour instruments and the obligations of the global financial organisations and multi-national corporations. Taking a broad and historical approach, the collection also incorporates Inter-American, African, Asian and Arab instruments alongside older UN documents and numerous soft law documents. Its approach reflects the diverse nature of international human rights law and the courses which now seek to teach it. This book is also valuable for students of international law, global governance and other courses which discuss the law of international human rights.

Ethical Dimensions of the Foreign Policy of the European Union - A Legal Appraisal (Hardcover): Urfan Khaliq Ethical Dimensions of the Foreign Policy of the European Union - A Legal Appraisal (Hardcover)
Urfan Khaliq
R2,413 Discovery Miles 24 130 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Urfan Khaliq analyses the theory and practice of the European Union's 'ethical foreign policy', arguing that current practices dilute the impact and efficacy of Union policies but that an effort which is at times effective is being made to protect certain values in the Union's international relations. Beginning with an investigation of the international rules authorising or obliging the Union/Community or the Member States to promote certain values in third countries or take action to protect them, Khaliq goes on to examine the limits under international law which constrain such policies. The issues are then assessed from a Union/Community law perspective, and the importance attached to ethical values and their relationship with other priorities and objectives is analysed in the context of relations with Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan, Israel and the Palestinian Authority. The European Community's humanitarian aid policy is also discussed.
