Georges van Hecke Premier Vice-Président M. Georges Abi-Saab Deuxième Vice-Président M. Santiago Torres Bemârdez Troisième Vice-Président M. Ian Brownlie Secrétaire général M. Christian Dominicé Trésorier M. Fausto Pocar Avertissement Le dernier Annuaire, volume 68-11, porte le millésime 1999, au lieu de 2000. Cette erreur intervenue lors de la reliure a pour conséquence que, dans la collection, 1999 apparaît deux fois, ce dont il faut tenir compte. D’autre part, aucun volume n’a été édité avant la Session de Vancouver, car les travaux de la Dix-neuvième Commission avaient déjà été publiés dans le volume 68-1 (Berlin, Première partie), alors que ceux des Septième et Treizième Commissions ont été remis aux Membres par voie interne, pour être publiés ultérieurement. Dès lors, la Session de Vancouver fait l’objet d’un seul volume. Pour maintenir la continuité de la collection, il porte les millésimes 2000-2001, alors que le suivant, Bruges 1, sera daté 2002-2003. Bruges II, qui paraîtra en 2004, portera cette date. Avant-propos Largement ouverte sur l’Océan pacifique, la généreuse cité de Vancouver allie en une même étreinte la vigueur impressionnante du continent nord-américain et l’effluve des lointains mystères de l’Asie. Elle a été pour les Membres de l’Institut un lieu de réunion accueillant et stimulant. Le Président McWhinney, ses collaborateurs et tous nos hôtes canadiens ont reçu l’Institut avec une délicate attention. Le Center for Dialogue, inauguré peu avant la Session, a offert à notre compagnie un cadre de travail adéquat et agréable. L’Institut n’est pas près d’oublier l’excursion navale à Victoria, et, au cœur de cette cité, la réunion digne et fort intéressante du Parlement de la Province de la Colombie britannique. Les participants ont également apprécié les réceptions diverses auxquelles ils ont été conviés, notamment par la Faculté de droit de la University of British Columbia, par l’Hon. Chief Justice Donald Brenner et The Canadian Bar Association et par la Simon Fraser University. Les délibérations de l’Institut ont été consacrées à ses travaux scientifiques, mais aussi, d’autre part, à l’examen du premier rapport du Comité constitutionnel créé à Berlin (Annuaire, Vol. 68-11, p. 71). Ce Comité a présenté en séance plénière le fruit de ses premiers travaux, inspirés par le désir de l’Institut de procéder à un examen atten¬ tif de ses structures, modes de fonctionnement et méthodes de travail. Son rapport, présenté en séance plénière par Sir Elihu Lauterpacht, a donné lieu à une discussion riche et utile. Il en est résulté l’adoption d’une Réso¬ lution (infra, p. 80) qui contient diverses suggestions. 12 Avant-propos Quant aux travaux scientifiques, ils ont porté sur trois sujets. La question de la Compétence extraterritoriale des Etats a été à l’ordre du jour de l’Institut pendant de longues années. Confié à la Dix-neuvième Commission, ce sujet a été à l’origine d’importants tra¬ vaux, dont les plus récents, comprenant notamment les rapports de M. François Rigaux, sont publiés dans le volume 68-1, de notre Annuaire (pp. 371-605). A Vancouver, M. Rigaux a commenté ces rapports, intro¬ duisant une discussion dont il est résulté qu’il n’y avait pas lieu, pour l’Institut, d’adopter en cette matière en résolution normative. L’on a sou¬ ligné, en revanche, combien les travaux accomplis constituent une œuvre de doctrine très substantielle. Le Rapporteur et les membres de sa Com¬ mission ont été chaleureusement remerciés. La deuxième question portée à l’attention de l’Assemblée plé¬ nière fut celle qu’avait étudiée la Septième Commission, Rapporteur M. Georg Ress, La succession d’Etats en matière de bien et de dettes.

  • Constitutional Peace, Political Order, Or Good Government? Organizing Scholarly Views on the 2008 Prorogation
    Canadian Political Science Review Vol. 8, No. 1, 2014, 102-125 Constitutional Peace, Political Order, or Good Government? Organizing Scholarly Views on the 2008 Prorogation Johannes Wheeldon Norwich University - Email address: [email protected] Abstract: This paper reports the views of 25 constitutional scholars on the 2008 prorogation. A large majority of scholars agree that the Governor General had discretion in 2008 to refuse the Prime Minister. Most hold that the 2008 prorogation harmed principles of responsible government, and a majority favour the development of a cabinet manual to outline roles and responsibilities to avoid future crises. Based on the survey data, I propose four unique schools of thought on this event, and consider how future research can test, assess, and further refine these findings. Keywords: Prorogation; Canada; Constitutional scholars; Mixed methods Résumé: Cet article rapporte les points de vue de 25 constitutionnalistes sur la prorogation de 2008. Une vaste majorité convient que la Gouverneure Générale disposait de l'autorité de la refuser au Premier Ministre. La plupart soutiennent que la prorogation de 2008 a mis à mal le principe de responsabilité gouvernementale, et la majorité favorise la mise sur pied d'un "manuel de cabinet" précisant les rôles et responsabilités, de manière à éviter de futures crises. Sur la base des données de l'enquête, l'auteur montre qu'existent 4 écoles de pensée distinctes sur l'événement, et considère comment les recherches futures peuvent tester, évaluer, et raffiner ces résultats. Mots-clés: prorogation, Canada, constitutionnalistes, approches variées Acknowledgements: I would like to acknowledge the assistance of the editors of CPSR, and thank those who participated in this project, and especially those who waived anonymity.
