Based on an analysis of the diplomatic practice of States, and decisions by national and international courts, this book explores the two central questions of the recognition of governments. These are namely: what are the meanings of the term 'recognition' and its variants in internationallaw; and what is the effect of recognition on the legal status of foreign authorities, and in particular of authorities in exile recognized as governments. The book is comprehensive in its analysis of the issues, and covers material which is of significant historical interest, as well as highlytopical material such as recent developments in Angola, Kuwait and Haiti. Thus Talmon's book will hold great appeal for international law scholars and practitioners alike. It may also be of interest to diplomats and civil servants working in organizations such as the United Nations.
This spellbinding literary travel guide gathers poetry, nonfiction, and fiction about Spain by forty English and American writers. Here are letters and memoirs from Lord Byron, Edith Wharton, and Henry James; a poem about Picasso by E. E. Cummings; and a comic tale by Anthony Trollope in which two Englishmen mistake a Spanish duke for a bullfighter. W. H. Auden, George Orwell, and Langston Hughes record their experiences in the Spanish Civil War, Ernest Hemingway takes on bullfighting, Richard Wright is beguiled by gypsy flamenco dancers, and Calvin Trillin pursues an obsession with Spanish peppers. From Chris Stewart’s memoir of his rural retreat in Driving Over Lemons to Barbara Kingsolver’s idyllic portrait of the Canary Islands in “Where the Map Stopped,” the glimpses of another world in Spain in Mind will enchant you. From the Trade Paperback edition.
Here is a fresh and unconventional introduction to the history of Latin American international relations, from colonial times to the present. Previous works of this scope have been written with an emphasis on the Latin American policy of the United States or other “outside” nations. In this volume, the authors offer a pioneering study from a perspective that has been ignored in English-language books—that of the Latin American nations themselves. Latin American Diplomatic History begins with the origins and nature of Latin American foreign policies and proceeds to the diplomatic conflicts and agreements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This synthesis draws out the persistent tensions among the Latin American countries—border conflicts, economic rivalries, population pressures, and ethnic clashes. Latin American Diplomatic History includes an extensive bibliography with listings by both country and century. This straightforward historical survey will appeal to all professionals, laymen, and students with an interest in Latin American relations, and it will be a useful guide for those who intend further study.
International Commercial Arbitration in Spain Miguel Gómez Jene Although this book will be of inestimable value to comparative law and arbitration specialists, it provides especially useful guidance for practitioners confronting specific questions during an arbitration with a seat in Spain or an award to be enforced in Spain. The author, a prominent Spanish lawyer and legal scholar, describes in detail all the relevant areas of international commercial arbitration under Spanish and applicable European and international law, with a rigorous analysis of the international, comparative, and internal jurisprudence embedded in Spanish regulation of international commercial arbitration. Twelve expository chapters explicitly follow the scheme of the Spanish Arbitration Act, and two introductory chapters cover the international and European instruments of international commercial arbitration as applied in Spain. The author covers such key principles and customary practices as the following: criteria to determine internationality; formal validity and effects of arbitration agreements; communications, service and computation of time limits; arbitrability; appointment, selection and removal of arbitrators; cases in which an arbitrator may be held liable; when an arbitrator may grant interim measures; pleading and evidence of foreign law; effect of insolvency; limitation of judicial intervention and court jurisdiction; judicial proceeding to set aside an arbitral award; and recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards. An up-to-date, indispensable tool for all professionals working in the world of international arbitration, this one-of-a-kind book will be welcomed by arbitrators, lawyers practising as counsel or arbitrators, global law firms, companies doing transnational business, arbitration academics and international arbitration centres.
