"This book assesses how international law and its institutions may be relevant and influence the course of international relations, in other words the relationship between power and law. This is done in relation to five regimes; international trade, environmental protection, human rights, criminal justice and use of force. The majority of international law literature focuses on the content of international rules (i.e. regimes) but has a tendency to ignore why these regimes exist and to what extent the rules actually affect state behaviour. The assumption is that states follow international law when the reality sometimes tells us differently. Turning to international relations literature, some scholars as represented in their publications focus on theories based on the distribution of power among states and ignore the existence and relevance of international law. In contrast, Power and Law in International Society examines theories of international relations, international law and formal institutions as well as an account of empirical research on the relevance of international law for the behaviour of states. This book has three main themes. First, the book will explain the foundations of international society from an inter-disciplinary perspective relaying on legal studies as well as international relations. Second, the book will examine variations in the degree of legalization in terms of obligation, precision, delegation and state acceptance. Finally, the book will give an account of the empirical research on the relevance of international law for the behaviour of states. This book will be of great interest to scholars of international law and international relations."--

Bei internationalen Warenlieferungen begegnet die Durchsetzung von Eigentumsvorbehalten und ähnlichen dinglichen Sicherungsrechten regelmäßig erheblichen Problemen und kann mitunter scheitern. Oft wird der Eigentumsvorbehalt im Bestimmungsstaat der Lieferung nicht (voll) anerkannt, weil er nicht den Voraussetzungen des dort anwendbaren Rechts entspricht. Das Werk zeigt auf, dass diese und weitere Probleme einer praktikablen Lösung zugeführt werden können, indem die Übertragung des Eigentums an der zu liefernden Ware und die Begründung eines Eigentumsvorbehaltes oder einer vergleichbaren dinglichen Sicherung daran, abweichend von bisherigen Meinungsstand, einheitlich nach den Regeln des von Käufer und Verkäufer gewählten Sachenrechts des Bestimmungsstaates vorgenommen werden können. Der Autor analysiert hierbei Inhalt, Begründung und Wirkungsweise aller de lege lata möglichen Anknüpfungen der mit internationalen Warenlieferungen einhergehenden dinglichen Rechtsfragen
