The book describes the peculiar way in which international law, encouraged by the Constitution, has been received into the law of the United States. Classical topics, considered from an American standpoint, follow: the character of states and governments, treaties, the jurisdiction of states, international organizations, the immunity of states, acts of state, comity, and so on. Attention is then paid to more modern subjects, including human rights, foreign exchange, and international commercial arbitration, the last a matter of practical importance that inhabits a borderland between public and private international law. The work introduces lawyers to the elements of public international law as declared chiefly by American federal appeals courts. Emphasis is given throughout to judicial decisions that can be called in aid by advocates. The hope is that lawyers working in American courts, at sea with questions of public international law, will find this handbook a safe port of entry.

Commercial Mediation and Arbitration in the NAFTA Countries

This book, by an experienced international arbitration practitioner, offers suggested language for every option that a drafter of an international arbitration may need. Following a succinct assessment of the choice between arbitration and litigation and commentary on the choices among arbitration fora and formats, the author presents an accessible how-to for drafting. While other works offer theory and a smattering of drafting tips, there is no other comprehensive collection of workable language, presented accessibly with easy-to-reference appendices (also included on accompanying diskette. This book will be a regular reference for both in-house counsel and outside practitioners. Format: This book is intended to provide, in an accessible format, clauses that address all the significant issues that contracting parties face, and in any event should consider, when they decide to draft a dispute resolution clause for an international contract. Those who wish immediate access to suggested language may turn directly to the Appendices. Those who wish to understand the analysis that leads to the suggested language should read the text. Chapters 1 through 4 discuss the threshold issues faced by parties when they consider providing for a dispute resolution method in their international contract. First, should the contract provide for arbitration (by means of an arbitration clause) or litigation (by means of a consent to the jurisdiction of a designated forum)? Second, if arbitration is selected, should it be administered by an institution or non-administered (ad hoc)? Third, if institutional arbitration is selected, which institution? Fourth, how should the place of arbitration be chosen and what are the implications of the choice? Chapter 5 is a "how-to" discussion of drafting arbitration clauses, and comprises the largest section of this book. It divides the elements of an arbitration clause among three categories: essential elements; recommended elements; and optional elements. For each element, Chapter 5 offers in the text examples of workable contract language, and an explanation of alternatives. For ease of reference, the Appendices set out these same recommended clauses. Chapters 6 through 8 address special situations that may alter the considerations that lead to the selection or rejection of the clauses discussed in Chapter 5. Chapter 6 deals with drafting arbitration clauses in multi-party contracts. Chapter 7 discusses arbitration clauses in multi-contract situations. Chapter 8 analyzes the special issues presented by arbitration clauses in contracts with sovereigns. Chapter 9 discusses the utility of providing for negotiation or mediation as a mandatory first step before resort to arbitration or litigation in international contracts, and suggests language that provides for such a first step without pitfalls. Chapter 10 offers suggested language for those instances in which the parties include both an arbitration clause and a judicial forum selection clause in their contract. Chapter 11 addresses choice of law clauses, a subject distinct from dispute resolution per se but one that nevertheless should be addressed in any international contract.

In Arbitrating Armed Conflict Adir Waldman examines a previously unstudied, yet critically important, experiment in international law. In April of 1996, Israel and Lebanon reached an extraordinary written Agreement: armed conflict between the Israel Defense Forces and the Lebanese terrorist militia Hesbollah would continue, but both forces would be bound to an explicitly agreed upon set of rules intended to protect civilians. To support this unique international pact, the parties established an equally unique arbitral institution—the Israel-Lebanon Monitoring Group—to hear and resolve complaints regarding breaches of the Agreement. Through a series of confidential interviews with highly informed participants, Mr. Waldman casts the first light on this exceptional system of international and military law. In addition, this volume presents a complete collection of decisions rendered by the Israel-Lebanon Monitoring Group, a true gold mine of previously unpublished material, as well as a highly confidential internal memorandum obtained by the author. In a day and age of seemingly unbounded conflict, the lessons of this system, with both its pitfalls and its virtues, will prove crucial, and this book an indispensable guidebook to that system. Accessable to the lay reader, this book is sure to be of interest to a wide audience — scholars, practitioners of international and military law, students of political science and foreign relations, observers of the Middle East and the wider public in general.
