Interpretation and Revision of International Boundary Decisions
Kaiyan Homi Kaikobad - Cambridge University Press, 2007 Anteprima del libro
This book, first published in 2007, seeks
to examine a consistent theme occurring in judgements and awards given by
international tribunals in the matter of boundary disputes, a theme which is
predicated on finding some sort of difficulty in the implementation of those
awards and judgements. This is a feature prominent in boundary and territorial
disputes inasmuch as decisions relative to title to territory and location of a
boundary line are always keenly contested and hotly disputed. Two remedies which
have frequently been relied on by States are those of interpretation and
revision. The author sheds light on how, when and in what circumstances will the
tribunal be able to interpret or revise either its own or another tribunal's
decisions. By doing so, the study succeeds in contributing to an understanding
of this area of the law
