In 2011, when §1282.4 sunsets, out-of-state attorneys will also be barred from appearing as counsel in California-based international arbitrations.

This book considers how the nuclear age has affected the oceans and the legal regime of the oceans. The Law of the Sea of Institute undertook the Oceans in the Nuclear Age Project …

Framing Political Theory Of International Courts And Tribunals: Reflections At The Centennial, David D. Caron

David D. Caron

This lecture given at the 100th Annual Meeting of the American Society of International Law explores the lack of agreement on political theory informing scholarship regarding international courts and tribunals. The lecture provides a sketch of such a frame in which the primary object is to identify different generating impulses for courts and tribunals in the international arena. It is not an effort to theorize about which of several forms of institution is chosen ultimately, but instead to understand the impulse to create a court or tribunal at all and therefore the contours of the phenomena that scholars studies.
