Su questo libro

Descrizione del libro

More and more treaties contain arrangements to induce States to comply with their commitments. Global scholars examine three forms of such mechanisms: dispute settlement procedures in the form of international courts, non-compliance procedures of an administrative character, and enforcement of obligation by coercive means. For lawyers and international relations practitioners.
