Wyler & Castellanos-Jankiewicz: Serious Breaches of Peremptory Norms

Eric A. Wyler (Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies) & León A. Castellanos-Jankiewicz (Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies) have posted Serious Breaches of Peremptory Norms (in Principles of Shared Responsibility in International Law: An Appraisal of the State of the Art, André Nollkaemper & Ilias Plakokefalos eds., forthcoming). Here's the abstract:
The contribution considers the extent to which the aggravated regime of international responsibility accommodates the scenario of several entities involved in the commission of serious breaches of peremptory norms. We explore this question by examining issues of shared responsibility in light of structural, substantive, and procedural aspects of serious breaches.
