International Courts for the Twenty-First Century

Building on the Foundations of public international arbitration in the 19th Century, the 20th century has witnessed a remarkable proliferation of courts for the international adjudication of disputes: e.q., the Permanent Court of International Justice the European Court of Justice, the European Court of Human Rights, and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. As we approach the centenary of the first Hague Peace Conference of 1899 that inaugurated the 20th century international courts, a panel of international jurists evaluates existing and proposed international courts. "International Courts for the Twenty-First Century" uses the past and the present to prepare international courts for the new century. The authors help fashion the courts that can help settle international disputes in the coming decades.Janis, Mark W. is the author of 'International Courts for the Twenty-First Century', published 1992 under ISBN 9780792317845 and ISBN 079231784X.
