The Peaceful Settlement of International Disputes

"Addressing not only inter-state dispute settlement but also the settlement of disputes involving non-State actors, The Peaceful Settlement of International Disputes offers a clear and systematic overview of the procedures for dispute settlement in international law. In light of the diversification of dispute settlement procedures, traditional means of international dispute settlement are discussed alongside newly developing fields such as the dispute settlement system under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the WTO dispute settlement systems, the peaceful settlement of international environmental disputes, intra-state disputes, mixed arbitration, the United Nations Compensation Commission, and the World Bank Inspection Panel. Figures are used throughout the book to help the reader to better understand the procedures and institutions of international dispute settlement, and suggestions for further reading support exploration of relevant issues. Suitable for postgraduate law and international relations students studying dispute settlement in international law and conflict resolution, this book helps students to easily grasp key concepts and issues"-- "The settlement of disputes is one of the essential functions of law and this is equally true of international law.

Furthermore, the establishment of mechanisms for settling international disputes is needed to secure the effectiveness of the international legal system. Peaceful settlement of international disputes thus occupies a central place within international law. As we shall discuss in this book, international law provides a range of means of international dispute settlement. They include negotiation, good offices, mediation, inquiry (fact-finding), conciliation, dispute settlement through international organisations, arbitration and judicial settlement"--
