  • International Organizations in the Recent Work of the International Law Commission
    Chapter 14 2018 aiib Law Lecture: International Organizations in the Recent Work of the International Law Commission Georg Nolte* Abstract The United Nations International Law Commission occasionally deals with the law relating to international organizations. A well-known example is its work in prepara- tion of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties between States and Interna- tional Organizations or between International Organizations of 1986. It is less well- known, but perhaps more important for the practice of international organizations, that the Commission has in recent years also addressed other relevant issues in this field. Those include the responsibility of international organizations (2011), the role which the practice of international organizations may play in the interpretation of their constituent instruments (2018) and in the formation of customary international law (2018), as well as considerations on whether the topic ‘Settlement of disputes to which international organizations are parties’ (2016) should be put on its agenda. This chapter reflects the 2018 aiib Law Lecture, summarizing the work of the Commission on these aspects of the law of international organizations and engages in some general reflections. 1 The Work of the ilc on International Organizations during the Twentieth Century The International Law Commission (ilc) has the mandate, under its Statute of 1947, to promote ‘the progressive development and the codification of inter- national law’.1 This mandate is rather broad, and the Commission is aware that * Georg Nolte, professor of Law, Humboldt-University Berlin, member of the International Law Commission, [email protected].

  • Equivocal Helpers—Complicit States, Mixed Messages and International Law
    EQUIVOCAL HELPERS—COMPLICIT STATES, MIXED MESSAGES AND INTERNATIONAL LAW GEORG NOLTE*&HELMUT PHILIPP AUST** Abstract Issues of State complicity arise ever more frequently in inter- national relations. Rules which deal with the responsibility of States for aiding or assisting in the commission of internationally wrongful acts by other States are, however, not yet fully developed. States frequently support each other’s actions without necessarily considering the potential implica- tions of the rules on complicity in international law. This leads to another problem: is support given to another State automatically to be seen as rele- vant practice for the development of new customary rules or the interpret- ation of treaties through subsequent practice? Or is it possible for complicit States to play two different roles: to assist in some conduct while not en- dorsing the legal claim associated with it? This contribution aims to untangle the various facets of complicit State behaviour. It will argue that in some cases, States can indeed play two different roles. States should, however, be careful in considering the long-term implications of such behaviour. I. INTRODUCTION In the shadow of momentous events, the question of responsibility of com- plicit States has arisen more and more frequently in recent years. The best- known cases concern the implication of third party States in the US-led attack against Iraq in 2003, the roles of European States in the US policy of ‘extra- ordinary rendition’, and Serbia’s involvement in the Srebrenica genocide. The rules on complicity in international law are not sufficiently developed to allow for clear-cut determinations in all those cases.1 It is clear, however, that some of these cases have created political dilemmas.

Book Discussion Editorials About EJIL: Talk! EJIL: Live! Blog of the European Journal EJIL: Talk!of International Law Home EJIL Analysis Let Not Triepel Triumph – How To Make the Best Out of Sentenza No. 238 of the Italian Constitutional Court for a Global Legal Order Let Not Triepel Triumph – How To Make the Best Out of Sentenza No. 238 of the Italian Constitutional Court for a Global Legal Order Published on December 22, 2014 Author: Anne Peters The Italian Constiutional Court’s decision no. 238 of 22 Oct. 2014 (unofficial translation into English) already inspired a flurry of comments in the blogosphere (see in EJIL talk! Christian Tams (24 Oct. 2014) and Theodor Schilling (12 Nov. 2014); on the Verfassungsblog amongst others Filippo Fontanelli (27 Oct. 2014); on Opinio Juris Andrea Pin (19 Nov. 2014); on the Völkerrechtsblog Felix Würkert (11 Dec. 2014)); see also Karin Oellers-Frahm, „Das italienische Verfassungsgericht und das Völkerrecht: Eine unerfreuliche Beziehung“, Heidelberg Journal of International Law 2015, issue 1. In that Sentenza, the Corte refused to give effect to the ICJ’s judgment (in) Jurisdictional Immunities of the State (Germany v. Italy) of 3 February 2012, in which the ICJ had upheld the principle of state immunity against allegations of serious human rights violations of German state organs committed during the Second World War. Sentenza No. 238 is important not only because it concerns the persisting tension between respecting (state) immunity and protecting human or fundamental rights (see for a recent publication Anne Peters/Evelyne Lagrange/Stefan Oeter/Christian Tomuschat (eds), Immunities in the Age of Global Constitutionalism (Leiden: Brill 2015)), but – maybe even more importantly – because it concerns the relationship between international law (in the shape of a judgment by the ICJ) and domestic law, as applied by a domestic (constitutional) court.
