The seventeenth Plenary Assembly of the International Telephone Consultative Committee (CCIF) was held in Geneva from October 4 to 12, 1954, under the chairmanship of Mr. Wettstein (Switzerland). Delegates from 36 countries attended the Assembly, which in pursuance of a resolution of the Plenipotentiary Conference of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) held at Buenos Aires in 1952, considered the possible amalgamation of the CCIF and the International Telegraph Consultative Committee (CCIT). After considerable debate, the Assembly by a vote of 21 to 13 with 1 abstention expressed the view that such an amalgamation would be in the interests of the ITU. Among the technical matters dealt with at the seventeenth Plenary Assembly were 1) the general switching program, 2) protection of telecommunication lines from danger and disturbances due to neighboring power lines, 3) protection of telecommunication cables from corrosion, 4) transmission, including telephone transmission in the international service, general characteristics of telephone circuits, the use of telephone circuits for telegraphy or phototelegraphy, broadcast and television relays over metallic lines, specification of carrier systems on metallic lines, radio relay links, links between mobile radiotelephone stations and international telephone lines, the maintenance and regulation of circuits and transmission systems, international operation and rates, and international signalling and switching; and 5) graphic and letter symbols, telephone vocabulary.

Die größer gewordene internationale Interdependenz hat auch das Konfliktpotential in Bereichen wie Handel, Umwelt, Wettbewerb, aber auch dem der Menschenrechte steigen lassen. In den letzten Jahren sind einige neue internationale Gerichte geschaffen worden, um Konflikte lösen zu helfen. Die Beiträge in diesem Band fragen nach Erfolgsbedingungen dieser Gerichte, aber auch nach der Notwendigkeit weiterer Gerichte.InhaltsübersichtPreface of the Editors – Stefan Voigt: Introduction – Daniel Sutter: The Deterrent Effects of the International Criminal Court – Kai Ambos: Comment – Anne van Aaken: Making International Human Rights Protection More Effective: A Rational-Choice Approach to the Effectiveness of Provisions for Ius Standi – Stefan Oeter: Comment – Eric Neumayer: Do international human rights treaties improve respect for human rights? – Lars P.

Three conferences were held in Atlantic City, New Jersey, from May 15 to October 2, 1947, under the auspices of the International Telecommunications Union. These three, the International Telecommunications Plenipotentiary Conference, and two special conferences dealing with radio and high frequency broadcasting, considered a number of technical changes in existing conventions and reorganized the structure of the International Telecommunications Union as a whole.

Nach einer Phase des Aufschwungs seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg war zu Beginn der 70er Jahre eine internationale Wirtschaftsordnung entstanden, die ein beispielloses Mass an Interdependenz erreicht hat. Globale Steuerungsdefizite und Anpassungszwaenge der nationalen Wirtschaften fuehrten zu Veraenderungen in den internationalen Handelsbeziehungen. Die Entwicklung der Oelpreise in den 70er Jahren war bestimmend fuer die Weltwirtschaft, insbesondere in ihrer Wirkung auf die internationale Arbeitsteilung. Fuer die oelimportierenden Entwicklungslaender waren Leistungsbilanz-Defizite und Verschuldung die Konsequenz der Oelpreisexplosionen. Die Industriestaaten reagierten einerseits mit einer Umstruktuierung ihrer Wirtschaften, andererseits versuchten sie, die Abhaengigkeit von internationaler Verflechtung einzud aemmen.
