Treaties have always been an indispensable tool of diplomacy. The
Egyptian and
Hittite
kings concluded a treat) in
1272
БС,
and since
1945
some
54,000
treaties have been registered with the United
Nations. The number continues to grow.
This new edition of a book first published in
2000
provides a
comprehensive account of the law of treaties. Written from the
viewpoint of an experienced practitioner, this edition updates existing
information and refines previous arguments. New material is included
covering topics such as the use of memorandums of understanding
(MOUsJ in litigation, the treaty-making capacity of entities such as
the Vatican, Taiwan and Palestine, and the effect of hostilities on
treaties. Given their increasing importance, there is also a new chapter
on international organisations, including an attempt to explain the
sometimes baffling roles in treaty-making played by the European
Community and European Union.

Treaties have always been an indispensable tool of diplomacy. The
Egyptian and
Hittite
kings concluded a treat)" in
1272
БС,
and since
1945
some
54,000
treaties have been registered with the United
Nations. The number continues to grow.
This new edition of a book first published in
2000
provides a
comprehensive account of the law of treaties. Written from the
viewpoint of an experienced practitioner, this edition updates existing
information and refines previous arguments. New material is included
covering topics such as the use of memorandums of understanding
(MOUsJ in litigation, the treaty-making capacity of entities such as
the Vatican, Taiwan and Palestine, and the effect of hostilities on
treaties. Given their increasing importance, there is also a new chapter
on international organisations, including an attempt to explain the
sometimes baffling roles in treaty-making played by the European
Community and European Union. |
