Despite their exponential growth in number and activities, there is not an established legal concept of an international organization. This book tackles the topic by examining the nature of the legal systems developed by international organizations. It is the first comprehensive study of the concepts by which international organizations' legal systems are commonly understood: functionalism, constitutionalism, exceptionalism, and informalism. Its purpose is threefold: to trace the historical origins of the different concepts of an international organization, to describe four groups under which these different notions can be aligned, and to propose a theory which defines international organizations as 'dual entities'. The concept of an international organization is defined by looking at the nature of the legal systems they develop. The notion of 'dual legal nature' describes how organizations create particular legal systems that derive from international law. This situation affects the law they produce, which is international and internal at the same time. The effects of the dual legal nature are considered by analysing international responsibility, the law of treaties, and the validity of organizations' acts.

Die Arbeit untersucht die Anwendbarkeit von Menschenrechten im Allgemeinen und der EMRK im Besonderen in internationalen und nicht-internationalen bewaffneten Konflikten. Hierbei analysiert die Arbeit die bestehende Rechtsprechung des EGMR zur extraterritorialen Anwendbarkeit der EMRK. Ein besonderes Augenmerk wird zudem auf das Verhältnis der EMRK zum Humanitären Völkerrecht und auf die Bindung nicht-staatlicher Akteure an Menschenrechte, allen voran die EMRK, gelegt.

"International Economics is designed for a one-semester course covering both the trade and finance components of international economics. The Eighth Edition continues the approach of the first seven editions by offering a principles-level introduction to the core theories together with policy analysis and the institutional and historical contexts of international economic relations. My goal is to make economic reasoning about the international economy accessible to a diverse group of students, including both economics majors and nonmajors. My intention is to present the consensus of economic opinion, when one exists, and to describe the differences when one does not. In general, however, economists are more often in agreement than not."
