Parallel to this reflection by the Commission, diplomats and public
officials, the body of international case-law and literature on the many facets
of the topic has steadily been growing. Responsibility of International
Organizations: Essays in Memory of Sir Ian Brownlie contributes to the body
of international literature by collecting a broad spectrum of different and
sometimes differing perspectives from well-known experts in the field, ranging
from the bench to the Commission, academia, and the world of in-house counsel.
The book is also a memorial to the renowned Sir Ian Brownlie, himself a
former Chairman of the International Law Commission who, as a leading scholar
and practitioner, greatly contributed to the reflection on international
responsibility, including the responsibility of international organizations.
Edited by Maurizio Ragazzi, a former pupil of Sir Ian, the book is an ideal
companion to International Responsibility Today, a collection of essays
on international responsibility which the same editor presented in 2005 in
memory of Oscar Schachter, and to which Sir Ian Brownlie had contributed.
The essays collected in Responsibility of International Organizations:
Essays in Memory of Sir Ian Brownlie, conveniently grouped by the editor
under broad areas for the reader's benefit, will be relevant not only to all
those interested in this specific subject but also, more generally, to all those
engaged in the field of international law and the law of international
organizations.
