Vienna convention on the law of treaties 1969 -- What is a treaty? -- MOUs -- Capacity to conclude treaties -- Full powers -- Adoption and authentication -- Consent to be bound -- Reservations -- Entry into force -- Treaties and domestic law -- Territorial application -- Successive treaties -- Interpretation -- Third states -- Amendment -- Duration and termination -- Invalidity -- The depositary -- Registration and publication -- Dispute settlement and remedies -- Succession to treaties -- International organisations -- Drafting and final clauses.
Summary: "On the publication of its first edition, this textbook was welcomed as the definitive study of treaty law written from the viewpoint of an experienced practitioner. As with the first, this edition aims to provide the student and practitioner with a full understanding of the law and updates existing information and refines previous arguments. New to its scope of examination is the study of the use of memorandums of understanding (MOUs) in litigation, the treaty-making capacity of entities such as the Vatican, Taiwan and Palestine, and the effect of hostilities on treaties. Given their increasing importance, there is also a new chapter on international organisations, including an attempt to explain the sometimes baffling roles in treaty-making played by the European Community and European Union. Students and practitioners alike will find this an invaluable guide to this increasingly important subject."--Publisher description.
