About the Author\nJohn Norton Moore is Emeritus Professor of Law and Emeritus Director of both the Center for National Security Law and the Center for Oceans Law and Policy at University of Virginia. He is an authority on international law, national security law, and the law of the sea. He also teaches advanced topics in national security law and the rule of law, and taught the first course in the US on national security law. Moore served as principal legal adviser to the Ambassador of Kuwait to the United States 1991-93, chaired the board of directors of the U.S. Institute of Peace 1985-91, was chair of the National Security Council Interagency Task Force on the Law of the Sea 1973-76, and as the counselor on international law to the State Department. He has also been a frequent witness before congressional committees and has published many articles on maritime policy, national security, and international law.\nDuring the 1970s and 1980s the United States led the world in negotiating one of the most important treaties in history, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Through these negotiations the United States secured the largest area of maritime jurisdiction in the world-an area larger than the continental United States itself-and protected navigational freedom, so critical for Naval mobility.\nThe United States was also recognized as having access to four deep seabed mine sites, each roughly the size of the State of Rhode Island, and each containing approximately a quarter trillion dollars in strategic minerals. Today UNCLOS is in force for 168 countries and the European Union. Isolationist arguments, however, have for a quarter-century prevented the Senate from voting on the Convention.\nThis book is about the potential damage to American national interests caused by this isolationist narrative. It discusses the robust reasons favoring the Convention, and offers a sharp critical examination of the arguments still being made against it. John Norton Moore posits that isolationist obstruction has cost the United States two deep seabed mine sites, "USA-2" and "USA-3," for a loss of a half trillion dollars in strategic minerals, and shows how a continuation of this narrative threatens the loss of "USA-1" and "USA-4" for another half trillion dollars-all while China has acquired four deep seabed sites and the Russian Federation three. In this ground-breaking, and vigorously argued new work, Moore asserts that it is time to accede to the Convention, as has been urged for decades by Presidents from both sides of the political divide.

Discussions of the unlawfulness of the Iraqi invasion, the lawfulness of the International Community response, and the Iraqi arguments made against the military response are presented here. The key United Nations resolutions issued during the 1991 Gulf War - explained and reprinted here - formed the foundation on which the 2003 war against Iraq was justified. Additional topics and coverage include: · Alternative enforcement mechanisms, legal issues, and considerations on the maintenance of peace and safety in the region · Reparations, war crimes trials, and permitted reprisals · Legal issues under the United States constitution · A postscript on controlling the scourge of war - toward a more peaceful future · A photo-journal of the author's attendance on the Freedom Flight documenting the destruction in the area and the warm welcome of the local citizens.

Treaty Interpretation addresses two important constitutional questions, whether the United States should follow the normal international legal standard in treaty interpretation rooted in the intent of the treaty parties or a new "dual'" standard of interpretation rooted in the intent of the Senate, and whether the Senate ever has constitutional authority to attach "domestic conditions" to treaties. This book has emerged from the work of the author as a consultant to the Arms Control Agency in preparing a detailed study on the respective views of Judge Sofaer and Senator Nunn in the 1980s "broad-narrow" debate as to the correct interpretation of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty with the Soviet Union. This debate and the subsequent revisions to the Re-statement (Third International Conference) demonstrate the effect that one individual can have on the U.S. foreign policy.   A glimpse of constitutional issues on treaty interpretations  Professor Moore wrote from a personal perspective, giving your students a chance to feel the very human tension of one of the greatest debates of our time. With Treaty Interpretation, you will let your students see the people who are behind today's foreign policy, face-to-face. This text illustrates a real world example of constitutional theory in practice. The separation of powers, as envisioned by our constitutional framers, is a constant struggle. A living example of the struggle to preserve a balance is demonstrated in this text as the distribution of power to interpret and apply international agreements.   Describes the corpus of international agreements   The author carefully traces these impacts, differentiates them, and surfaces the nearly invisible, but profoundly important, constitutional issues in this "great debate."   A must-have for those interested in constitutional treaty laws   This book is a must for those concerned with treaty issues and constitutional law. This is an important reading for basic international law courses.   About the Author   John Norton Moore is one of the best-known international lawyers in the world. His writings on international law and constitutional dimensions of foreign policy have been read literally around the world. Among seven presidential appointments, most recently Professor Moore served for two terms as the Senate-Confirmed Chairman of the Board of Directors of the United States Institute of Peace. He has written and testified extensively on the constitutional issues and the conduct of United States foreign policy. He has also testified at Senate hearings on executive agreements and treaty terminations.
