International Law Today: New Challenges and the Need for Reform? (Beiträge zum ausländischen öffentlichen Recht und Völkerrecht)

This collection of essays is based upon the presentations given at a symposium on the occasion of the 65th birthday of Professor Rüdiger Wolfrum in December 2006. The contributions cover a wide range of contemporary issues of international law, including state responsibility, crisis management, unity of law, deep sea genetic resources, liability for environmental damage in Antarctica, human rights and intellectual property, and the protection of minorities.
