Max Planck Yearbook of United Nations Law, Volume 8 (2004)

Now in its eighth year, the Max Planck Yearbook of United Nations Law has become a much sought-after forum for essays in international law related to the UN. Volume eight comprises topics like the United Nations system of the use of force; the U.S. bilateral non-surrender agreements in relation to the ICC; developing countries, non-traditional intellectual property rights and the WIPO; and fact-finding by UN human rights complaints bodies. This is only a selection and shows the variety of topics. This volume is therefore again a must for any academic or practitioner involved in international law and questions concerning the United Nations.
