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.

  • Hans Kelsen: International Peace Through International Law
    Hans Kelsen: International Peace through International Law Danilo Zolo* The idea of law, in spite of everything, seems still to be stronger than any ideology of power. H. Kelsen Abstract This article focuses on Hans Kelsen’s theory of international law and pacifism. Following an analytical reconstruction of Kelsen’s theses, the author makes a number of critical observations. In particular, the article examines Kelsen’s ideas on the primacy of international law, the necessary demise of the concept of sovranity and the assumption of the doctrine of justum bellum as the basis for the juridical character of international law. Special attention is given to Kelsen’s idea of a ‘Permanent League for the Maintenance of Peace’, inspired by a kind of ‘judicial cosmopolitanism’, and developed in his Peace through Law. It is the author’s opinion that Kelsen’s internationalism and pacifism brought about an important turning-point in the theory of international law and anticipated by 50 years many of the issues that the international community are today discussing: in particular, individuals as subjects of international law (and not only states) and the use of international criminal tribunals for the punishment of those responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Finally, the author argues that there is some doubt whether Kelsen’s theoretical and political goals, inspired by the Kantian idea of the moral unity of humanity and by a normativist conception of law, may be fulfilled or even desirable. 1 Neo-Kantian Epistemological Assumptions In his essay Das Problem der Souveränität und die Theorie des Völkerrechts, written during the First World War and published in 1920, Kelsen tackled for the first time the theme of the nature and functions of the international legal system.1 With undoubted originality and impressive theoretical development, he puts forward a ‘monist’ view in opposition to the theories of the primacy of state law and of the pluralism on a parity basis of sources of law.

    1978] BOOK REVIEWS 123 BOOKREVIEWS THE FUTURE OF THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE. Edited by Leo Gross. 1976. Dobbs Ferry: Oceana. 2 vols., x and 862 pp. $50.00. When the Permanent Court of International Justice was established at the end of the first world war many welcomed it as heralding a new era in international relations with judicial settlement becoming the means for asserting and upholding the rule of law, even though recourse to the Court was optional. While it cannot be said that this hope had been vindicated by the outbreak of the second world war, there was still some measure of idealism and trust in international justice, enough to make the World Court in its new guise as the International Court of Justice a principal organ of the United Nations and the judicial arm of that body. Despite the references to judicial settlement in the Charter recourse to the Court has not by any means been frequent and, even though the number of pages comprising the law reports may appear impressive, this is largely the result of lengthy separate and dissenting opinions or judgments, many of which far outweigh the majority view in bulk even if not in substance. In so far as the jurisprudence of the Court since 1946 was concerned, one is left with the impression that states and the United Nations are more likely to ignore than use that tribunal. In fact, Mr. Rovine describes it as "clearly the least successful and most disappoin­ ting major organ of the United Nations system .... Its influence negligible and its place in the international arena hardly assured" (p.

    THE YALE LAW JOURNAL VOLUME 60 FEBRUARY, 1951 NUMBER 2 VOTING IN THE SECURITY COUNCIL: ABSTENTION FROM VOTING AND ABSENCE FROM MEETINGS LEO GROSSt THE action of the Security Council in the Korean affair, instituted by the note of the United States of June 25, 1950,1 stirred up interest in some of the unresolved questions concerning the interpretation of Article 27 of the Charter. The questions to be considered are those arising from the abstention of a permanent member from voting on a matter of substance and those arising from the absence of a permanent member from a meeting of the Security Council in the course of which matters of substance, and more particularly matters falling under Chapter VII, are submitted to vote. I. ABSTENTION FROM VOTING The second part of Article 27, paragraph 3 makes abstention from voting mandatory in case a member, whether permanent or elected, is a party to the dispute. This provision is clear and need not be further discussed here. It is also unnecessary in this context to go into the question of whether this mandatory rule includes the duty to abstain on preliminary decisions such as whether a matter is a dispute or a situation, whether the dispute is of a certain gravity as indicated in Articles 33 and 34, and whether a state is party to a dispute. Before going further it may be useful to recall the text of the first part of paragraph 3 of Article 27: "Decisions of the Security Council on all other matters shall be made by an affirmative vote of seven members including the concurring votes of the permaneht members." This text has sometimes been said not to require the concurring vote of all the permanent members other than those bound by the manda- tory rule in the second part of paragraph 3 of Article 27.
