THE U.N. CONFERENCE ON THE HUMAN ENVIRONMENT WAS THE FIRST SERIOUS INTERNATIONAL EFFORT TO DEAL WITH THE PLANETARY CRISIS. THE RECOMMENDATIONS ADOPTED HAVE THREE PRIMARY ENVIRONMENTAL OBJECTIVES: RESTORATION, PRESERVATION, AND PREVENTION. TO FULFILL THESE OBJECTIVES, NEW COORDINATING MACHINERY WAS CREATED IN THE U.N. AND A GLOBAL ECO-MONITORING PROGRAM WAS SET UP.
Also available as an e-book Pan-Africanism offers a unique vantage point to study Africa's encounters with international law : first, as a continent whose political entities were excluded from the scope of application of the Eurocentric version of international law that was applied among the self-styled club of "civilized nations" ; second, through the emergence of African States as subjects of international law willing to contribute to the reform and further development of the law as a universal interstate normative system; and third, as members of the OAU and the AU acting collectively to generate innovative principles and rules, which, though applicable only in the context of intra-African relations, either go beyond those existing at the universal level or complement them by broadening their scope. This study examines those encounters through the various stages in the evolution of Pan-Africanism from a diaspora-based movement, engaged in the struggle for the emancipation of the peoples of the continent, to groupings of independent States and intergovernmental organizations which continue to promote African unity and influence the development of international law to make it more reflective of diverse legal traditions and values
International Law and New Wars examines how international law fails to address the contemporary experience of what are known as 'new wars' - instances of armed conflict and violence in places such as Syria, Ukraine, Libya, Mali, the Democratic Republic of Congo and South Sudan. International law, largely constructed in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, rests to a great extent on the outmoded concept of war drawn from European experience - inter-state clashes involving battles between regular and identifiable armed forces. The book shows how different approaches are associated with different interpretations of international law, and, in some cases, this has dangerously weakened the legal restraints on war established after 1945. It puts forward a practical case for what it defines as second generation human security and the implications this carries for international law
