RECENT BOOKS THE POLITICAL FOUNDATIONS OF INTERNATIONAL LAW. By Morton A. Kaplan and Nicholas deB. Katzenbach. New York: John Wiley & Sons. 1961. Pp. xi, 372. $6.95. The stated objective of this book is to "make use of a systems theory of international politics" to relate "the norms of international law to thejr political foundations." (p. v) More concretely, the authors' aim is to set forth the difference between international law in the two systems: the nineteenth century "balance of power" system and the prevailing "loose bipolar system." The authors also expect to show that state behavior neither is, nor ought to be, given solely to the pursuit or acquisition of power, as is asserted by the neo-realists, but that it also is subject to normative constraints.

Th e EU’s Council of Ministers is accordingly seen as a setting where sovereign states speak with one another. Yet if state interaction in the EU is only viewed from this perspec- tive, a number of important qualitative changes will remain underexposed. Th is article argues that leading political forces in the European states have come to view their nations as anchored so deeply within the supranational institutions of the EU that their diplomats merge the promotion of national interests with those of the Union. In this late sovereign phase of diplomacy, political and legal authorities overlap, territorial exclusivity is replaced with functional boundaries, and states begin to speak with one voice. Th e article explores three interlinked aspects of late sovereign diplomacy: the teleological interpretation of the EC and EU treaties; the intense socialization of state representatives; and the negotiation process, which promotes national positions as part of a European cause, thereby delocalizing the national interest.

Abstract When the international criminal tribunals were convened in Nuremberg and Tokyo in the mid-1940s, the response from lawyers was mixed. Some believed that the Second World War was an exceptional event requiring special legal remedies, and commended the tribunals for advancing international law. Others condemned them for their legal shortcomings and maintained that some of the charges were retroactive and selectively applied. Since then, suc- cessive generations of commentators have interpreted the tribunals in their own ways, shaped by the conflicts and political concerns of their own times. The past two decades have seen the establishment of new international courts, and an accompanying revival of interest in their predecessors at Nuremberg and Tokyo. Recent commentaries have analysed the founding documents, the choice of defendants, the handling of the charges, the conduct of the cases – and also the legal and political legacies of the tribunals. They demonstrate that long-standing disagreements over antecedents, aims and outcomes have still not been settled, and that the problems inherent in some of the original charges have still not been solved, despite the appearance of similar charges within the remit of the International Criminal Court today.

    American Journal of International Law VOLUME 65 1971 Published by The American Society of International Law 7 The American Society of International Law The American Society of International Law was organized in 1906 "to foster the study of international law and to promote the establishment and mainte­ nance of international relations on the basis of law and justice." The Society serves as a meeting place and forum for scholars, teachers, offi­ cials, lawyers and others, from some ninety-seven countries. At the end of April, it holds a three-day Annual Meeting in Washington at which current prob­ lems of international law are discussed. The Society also sponsors regional meetings outside of Washington in co-operation with other institutions. Salient questions of international law and relations are considered in depth by panels and study groups organized by the Society's Board of Review and Development. Works of scholarship are often published under the Society's auspices in connec­ tion with studies sponsored by the Board. The Society periodically issues three publications: The American Journal of International Law, the leading journal in the field of international law, has been published since 1907. A special number of the Journal carries the papers and discussions of the annual meeting of the Society. The Journal is distributed to all members of the Society without additional charge, and is available to non-members at a subscription rate of $30 a year. International Legal Materials, a bimonthly, is a unique international collection of texts of current official documents, including legislation, treaties, court deci­ sions, and reports.
