This was finally achieved on 5 May 2017. A limited but notable list of panellists included lawyers representing staff unions, complainants, international organizations, as well as judges and legal officers of other courts of justice or administrative tribunals. The participation of some 200 persons in the symposium demonstrates the strong interest that topics concerning international civil service law can trigger. It seemed regrettable not to record the event in writing for those who could not attend the symposium, or who will be dealing with the topics covered by its agenda in the future. That is why the present book is being published. The panellists kindly agreed to revise their The present book arises presentations in a format suitable for a book and I have out of a symposium that to express my deepest gratitude for their high-quality the Administrative Tribunal essays. of the International Labour Most of the panellists are employed by different Organization organized institutions.

  • Dedoublement Fonctionnel) in International Law
    Remarks on Scelle's Theory of "Role Splitting" (dedoublement fonctionnel) in International Law Antonio Cassese * It is the purpose of this paper to focus briefly on one of the main pillars of G. Scelle's contribution to the theory of international law, namely his construct of "role splitting" (^dedoublement fonctionner) in the international legal community. To this end, I shall first sketch out Scelle's view and then endeavour briefly to ap- praise it Finally, I shall raise the question of whether the doctrine is still vital today.1 Of the Board of Editors.

Treaties As a Source of General Rules of International Law,* by Anthony D’Amato, 3 Harvard International Law Journal 1-43 (1962) Abstract: Attempts a theoretical explanation of the power of treaties to extend their rules to nations not parties to them—to rationalize, in a nonpejorative use of that term, the Court=s citation of the Bancroft treaties in Nottebohm and its use of treaty provisions in other cases—and to provide a basis for the continued use of the contents of treaties in assessing the requirements of international law. Thus this paper is basically argumentative—it attempts to state what the law ought to be by demonstrating that the law as it is logically compels the adoption of the present thesis. Tags: Treaties, International Law, Bancroft Treaties, Nottebohm Case, Asylum Case, Lotus Case [pg1]** I. INTRODUCTION In 1955 the International Court of Justice rendered its highly significant decision in the Nottebohm case.

  • Georges Scelle (1878 - 1961) Biographical Note with Bibliography
    Georges Scelle (1878 - 1961) Biographical note with bibliography edited by Antonio Tanca * Georges Scelle was bom in Avranches (Manche) on 19 March 1878. After excelling at his local school, he attended the Law Faculty and the "Ecole libre des Sciences Politiques" in Paris, where he was awarded a prize for his thesis, "La traite n6griere aux Indes de Castille", written under the supervision of A. Pillet. After two years at the University of Sofia (1908-10), he lectured at the Law Faculties of Dijon (1910-11) and Lille (1911-12). In 1912 he passed the agrigation and was ap- pointed to the Law Faculty of Dijon, where he remained for 20 years. In Dijon he taught Public International Law and Industrial Relations Law. Mobilized on 3 August 1914, he was promoted to lieutenant and then posted at the headquarters of the 8th army as a legal expert (1917). At the end of the war he resumed his work in Dijon. For a few months (June 1924 - July 1925) he acted as head of department at the Min- istry of Labour and played a decisive role in the drafting of the 16 January 192S decree which established the Economic Council. The proposal for his appointment in 1925 as a professor at the Paris Law Faculty was one of the reasons for a strike by right-wing stu- dents. A heated general debate followed at the Senate, where the Government was de- feated; as a consequence the Herriot cabinet resigned. From 1929 to 1932 he taught Pub- lic International Law both in Geneva and in Dijon.

  • Georges Scelle
    The European Tradition in International Law: Georges Scelle The Thought of Georges Scelle Hubert Thierry* There are several key reasons why the thought of Georges Scelle has always pro- voked and continues to provoke interest The first of these reasons, and an obvious one, is that Georges Scelle was a great jurist, which is evidenced by both the range and reputation of his work and the influ- ence which he exerted on the community of French international legal scholars. The thought of Scelle was so influential that, for a time, the concept of sovereignty was all but banished from the research and teaching of the international law faculties of French universities. Knowledge of Scelle's works is still an integral part of legal culture and while it is true that several authors have now adopted voluntarist theories very much opposed to the thought of Scelle, their position is at least in part a reac- tion to Scelle's thought, which is used as a straw man and is thus found in their work. A second reason for the interest in the work of Scelle is its alluring nature from which, it seems, few readers are immune. This allure is rooted principally in the unity of elaborated and logically ordered work, with its view of the whole field of law, including not only international law, but also any legal phenomena. The Scel- lian concept of international law is derived from this vision. A single thread runs through all aspects of Scellian thought, linking them together. When Scelle tackled the burning legal questions of his day - whether they dealt with governing minori- ties, a subject which he addressed in 1919, or with the mandates of the League of Na- tions, or with the continental shelf, to which he devoted a study in 1955l - his Professor at the University of Paris X-Nanterre.
