The Settlement of International Disputes: Basic Documents

Description

The second edition of this book provides students, scholars, and practitioners of international law with easy access to the key primary sources in international dispute settlement, allowing users to focus on engaging with the primary material, rather than trying to source it. The text has been expanded and updated to reflect developments in this rapidly changing field. It includes dispute settlement provisions of treaties adopted since the first edition (such as the Paris Agreement on Climate Change and the WTO Multi-Party Interim Appeal Arbitration Agreement) and takes stock of changes affecting proceedings before investment tribunals, the European Court of Human Rights, and the International Court of Justice. A new subject index improves navigation.

Christian J Tams is Professor of International Law at the University of Glasgow. Antonios Tzanakopoulos is Lecturer in Public International Law at the University of Oxford.

...an excellent collection of documents in the field of peaceful settlement of international disputes. It is a very useful work of reference for students and scholars studying international law and international dispute settlement, as well as for practitioners working in international fields. -- Yoshifumi Tanaka * Cambridge Law Journal, Volume 72(1) * ...this collection could prove handy for...students or those who need finger-tip ready access to some of the basic texts and treaties forming the bases of international law. The freely available nature of this material is by no means a reason not to publish such a collection. -- Timothy L. Foden * Transnational Dispute Management * No substantive area of international dispute settlement has been left untouched, and one is left with the impression that a considered expertise has been brought to bear in the selection of the material. The reviewer-who spends a not inconsiderable amount of time engaged in a similar field-is happy to have this volume within arm's reach, and encourages others interested in the field to do the same. -- Cameron Miles * Cambridge Journal of International & Comparative Law *
