Moran: The Authority of International Criminal Law: A Controversial Concept

Clare Frances Moran (Univ. of Aberdeen - Law) has published The Authority of International Criminal Law: A Controversial Concept (Cambridge Univ. Press 2023). Here's the abstract:

Despite a wealth of literature exploring the issues surrounding it, the legitimacy and authority of international criminal law remain in question. Adopting a perspective informed by legal and political philosophy, Clare Frances Moran considers the authority of international criminal law, why it can be conceived of as more than simply an exercise of power and how that power may be exercised legitimately. Advancing existing scholarship on the subject, Moran explores the roots of the authority of law at the domestic level and tests these ideas in an international context. She examines sovereignty, complementarity and postcolonial issues, and how each impact international criminal law. By developing a theory on the authority of international law, Moran considers how it might be possible to adjudicate more effectively at the international level.

Kjeksrud: Using Force to Protect Civilians: Successes and Failures of United Nations Peace Operations in Africa

Stian Kjeksrud (Norwegian Defence Univ.) has published Using Force to Protect Civilians: Successes and Failures of United Nations Peace Operations in Africa (Oxford Univ. Press 2023). Here's the abstract:

Using Force to Protect Civilians offers the first comprehensive analysis of United Nations military protection operations across time and UN missions, drawing on a novel dataset that covers 200 operations from ten UN peacekeeping missions in Africa from 1999 to 2017. Employing a mixed-methods research design, the book finds that Blue Helmets succeed as often as they fail when they employ force to protect, indicating that they can wield force effectively - under the right conditions - to achieve this priority task. Stian Kjeksrud shows that effective UN military protection operations must rest on a deep understanding of perpetrators' motivation and modus operandi for attacking civilians, facilitating tailored military responses to stop or reduce physical threats in a timely manner. Adding to existing knowledge about the conflict-reducing effect of the presence of uniformed UN personnel, he also finds that specific actions matter more than the simple presence of Blue Helmets in large numbers. While protecting civilians is a priority task for military peacekeepers, we have limited knowledge about how they fare across time and in different UN missions when they use force to protect. We also remain largely ignorant of the conditions leading to successful outcomes when they intervene militarily to protect civilians from violence. Using Force to Protect Civilians addresses both of these knowledge gaps, and provides the building blocks for a theory of the utility of force to protect civilians in UN peace operations.

Gao, Raess, & Zeng: China and the WTO: A Twenty-Year Assessment

Henry Gao (Singapore Management Univ.), Damian Raess (Universität Bern), & Ka Zeng (Univ. of Arkansas) have published China and the WTO: A Twenty-Year Assessment (Cambridge Univ. Press 2023). The volume is available open access. Here's the abstract:

Examining the twenty years since China acceded to the World Trade Organization, this collection provides an original, systematic assessment of the opportunities and challenges that China has presented to the WTO. Offering in-depth analyses of the 'two-way' relationship between China and the WTO, the contributions explore a range of key issues from the varied effects of WTO membership for China and the global economy to the responses of the WTO members to China's rapid economic growth. It presents diverse perspectives of leading scholars from multiple disciplines, including law, economics, political science, and international relations, as well as practical insights from senior policymakers from both China and the United States. This is an invaluable contribution to ongoing debates about the implications of the rise of China for global economic governance and enriches discussions of the wide-ranging implications of China's growing integration into the multilateral trading system, both now and in the future.

Peters: Human Rights and Corruption: Problems and Potential of Individualising a Systemic Problem

Anne Peters (Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law) has posted Human Rights and Corruption: Problems and Potential of Individualising a Systemic Problem (International Journal of Constitutional Law, forthcoming). Here's the abstract:

This article examines the pitfalls and potentials of the recent deliberate legal-political strategy of individualising the systemic problem of corruption. Correlations between the quantity and quality of corruption on the one side and the level of enjoyment of human rights on the other side have been shown. In response to these observations, the policy agendas of anti-corruption and human rights have been converging on the international and regional levels. Nevertheless, it is not easy to conceptualise corruption as a human rights violation that triggers international state responsibility. Moreover, risks and opportunities of the convergence of the policy agendas need to be assessed. This leads to the conclusion that the human rights approach does convey an added value that outweighs its drawbacks. The question remains whether human rights are the proper normative framework to denounce and combat corruption. It is submitted that, by opening up new options for monitoring and litigation, the human rights perspective can usefully complement the criminal law approach. Therefore, the currently one-sided integration of corruption concerns into the human rights machinery should be supplemented by a full attention to human rights in all monitoring schemes in the various anti-corruption regimes. Then, the relevant policies will likely create a positive feedback loop in which anti-corruption is instrumental to improving the human rights situation while a range of human rights will work as enablers for fighting corruption.

Stoyanova: Positive Obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights: Within and Beyond Boundaries

Vladislava Stoyanova (Lund Univ. - Law) has published Positive Obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights: Within and Beyond Boundaries (Oxford Univ. Press 2023). This book is available open access. Here's the abstract:

It is beyond question that States have positive obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) to prevent and address harm and risks of harm. However, given the difficulties of determining and delimiting the role of the State, the conditions under which positive obligations may apply can be unclear. The search for balance between intrusion and restraint by the State—between protection and freedom from interference—further complicates the question of state responsibility for breach of positive obligations.

Vladislava Stoyanova directly addresses these challenges in Positive Obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights. By systematising the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, the book provides key insights into the elements crucial for ascertaining state responsibility for omissions - state knowledge, causation, and reasonableness. It outlines different kinds of positive human rights obligations and identifies the circumstances under which they can be breached.

Stoyanova reflects upon what is at stake for political communities when the triggering, content, and scope of positive obligations has been determined. She offers serious evaluation of the dangers of ECHR obligations whose scope might be too expansive or intrusive, as well as the conceptual hurdles of applying positive human rights obligations extraterritorially.

Schabas: The International Legal Order's Colour Line: Racism, Racial Discrimination, and the Making of International Law

William A. Schabas (Middlesex Univ. London - Law) has published The International Legal Order's Colour Line: Racism, Racial Discrimination, and the Making of International Law (Oxford Univ. Press 2023). Here's the abstract:

Prior to the twentieth century, international law was predominantly written by and for the 'civilised nations' of the white Global North. It justified doctrines of racial inequality and effectively drew a colour line that excluded citizens of the Global South and persons of African descent from participating in international law-making while subjecting them to colonialism and the slave trade.

The International Legal Order's Colour Line narrates this divide and charts the development of regulation on racism and racial discrimination at the international level, principally within the United Nations. Most notably, it outlines how these themes gained traction once the Global South gained more participation in international law-making after the First World War. It challenges the narrative that human rights are a creation of the Global North by focussing on the decisive contributions that countries of the Global South and people of colour made to anchor anti-racism in international law.

After assessing early historical developments, chapters are devoted to The League of Nations, the adoption and implementation of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, the debates within UNESCO on the notion of race itself, expansion of crimes against humanity to cover peacetime violations, as well as challenges to apartheid in South Africa. At all stages, the focus lies on the role played by those who have been the victims of racial discrimination, primarily the countries of the Global South, in advancing the debate and promoting the development of new legal rules and institutions for their implementation. The International Legal Order's Colour Line provides a comprehensive history and compelling new approach to the history of human rights law.

van den Boogaard: Proportionality in International Humanitarian Law: Refocusing the Balance in Practice

Jeroen van den Boogaard has published Proportionality in International Humanitarian Law: Refocusing the Balance in Practice (Cambridge Univ. Press 2023). Here's the abstract:

This book seeks to clarify the legal concept of proportionality in international humanitarian law, as it applies during armed conflict. It is argued in the book that a refocus of the interpretation of the proportionality rule is warranted to enhance the protection of civilians. More precisely, this book seeks to dissect the origins of the rule, determine how its components must be interpreted and how it is to be applied in practice. The book considers practical situations that may arise in the conduct of military operations and searches for the limits international humanitarian law sets to commanders' assessments of proportionality during armed conflict. The book concludes that proportionality is an inherently subjective and imprecise yardstick that nonetheless serves to protect civilians during armed conflict.

Meyer: Copernican Revolution or Green Protectionism?

Timothy Meyer (Duke Univ. - Law) has posted Copernican Revolution or Green Protectionism? (in The Sustainability Revolution in International Trade Agreements, Kathleen Claussen & Geraldo Vidigal eds, forthcoming). Here's the abstract:

Contemporary trade agreements include an ever-expanding set of environmental and sustainability commitments which, if violated, can lead to the imposition of trade barriers. Likewise, the world’s leading developed economies have begun rolling out green trade barriers in the form of product bans, border adjustments, and discriminatory subsidies. This chapter argues that the growth of sustainable trade policies reflects two phenomenon. First, it reflects the ordinary historical ebb and flow of unilateralism and multilateralism. While at some points in history multilateral institutions have taken the lead in shaping trade policy, at other times unilateralism has played a more important role. We are in the latter moment, but that does not mean that the former’s time has passed. Second, like all policies, green trade policies usually pursue multiple objectives. The fact that green trade policies often have mixed motives means that assessing their effects through a Puritan lens is a fool’s errand. The quest nations are on today is not for trade policies that promote sustainability in the least trade restrictive way possible. Instead, they are looking for policies that can generate the political support to address urgent environmental crises while still promoting economic growth.

Part I describes the growth of environmental provisions within trade agreements themselves, and compares that trend to the growth of domestic trade measures designed to address environmental problems in ways that arguably violate international trade agreements. Part II argues that, at least in the short term, this second kind of measures is likely to be more influential than trade and sustainability (TSD) provisions in trade agreements. This influence occurs in large part by shaping subsequent multilateral negotiations, as well as the implementation and interpretation of existing multilateral provisions. Part III argues that trade agreements and unilateral measures that raise (or authorize raising) trade barriers to tackle environmental problems are a key ingredient of addressing environmental problems and ultimately of preserving the system of liberalized trade.
