    ABHANDLUNGEN Dissenting and Individual Opinions in the International Court of justice) Edvard Hambro I. The question of dissent within courts of justice consisting of more than a single judge is difficult and complicated. It has been given different solu- tions in various countries and throughout history. The solution given to the problem in international courts has also differed widely, and it cannot be said that there is unanimity on the point even today. The question is also to some extent rather peculiar because it would seem that individual judges through their dissents have contributed greatly to the development of municipal law 2) whereas this would not seem to be the case in the International Court 3). One coptributing reason for this is undoubtedly the rarity of international awards. Whereas national judgments in each individual country can be counted by the hundreds every year, international awards can generally be 1) For literature see particularly Manley 0.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of die page in tfie adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
