Comparative Constitutional Law: Casebooks For A Developing Discipline, Donald P. Kommers
Comparative Constitutional Law: Casebooks For A Developing Discipline, Donald P. Kommers
Journal Articles
Comparative constitutional law is a developing area of legal scholarship. One sign of this development is the recent appearance of two casebooks, both published in 1979.

While few commentators question the international status of the Community in relation to the Member States and those countries with which it has negotiated treaties, the question of whether the Common Market possesses a universally recognizable personality remains open. In determining the international status of the United Nations, the ICJ in the Reparations Case stated that fifty states, "representing the vast majority of the members of the international community, had the power in conformity with international law to bring into being an entity possessing an objective international personality and not only personality recognized by them alone. If this recognition standard …
