Vietnam War and International Law, Volume 1
The Vietnam War and International Law, Volume 3
Issues of the war that have provoked public controversy and legal debate over the last two years—the Cambodian invasion of May-June 1970, the disclosure in November 1969 of the My Lai massacre, and the question of war crimes—are the focus of Volume 3. As in the previous volumes, the Civil War Panel of the American Society of International Law has endeavored to select the most significant legal writing on the subject and to provide, to the extent …
The Vietnam War and International Law, Volume 4
This concluding volume of The Vietnam War and International Law focuses on the last stages of America's combat role in Indochina. The articles in the first section deal with general aspects of the relationship of international law to the Indochina War. Sections II and III are concerned with the adequacy of the laws of war under modern conditions of combat, and with related questions of individual responsibility for the violation of such laws. Sec…
Horizons of Global Governance
I think that the subject matter that we are addressing in this volume infuses the core of what we can expect and hope about the future of world order. The future of global governance is well encompassed by a suggestive comment made in an essay of Ralph Waldo Emerson, 19th-century poet/philosopher, who wrote 'the health of the eye seems to demand a horizon. We are never tired so long as we can see far enough' (Emerson 2000: 11). A line from the fe…

Global Crises and the Crisis of Global Leadership
This groundbreaking collection on global leadership features innovative and critical perspectives by scholars from international relations, political economy, medicine, law and philosophy, from North and South. The book's novel theorization of global leadership is situated historically within the classics of modern political theory and sociology, relating it to the crisis of global capitalism today. Contributors reflect on the multiple political,…
Demystifying Iraq
Demystifying Iraq? Richard Falk (bio) "If you demystify something, you make it easier to understand" —Collins Cobuild English Language Dictionary Why Demystification? Mystification as a description of behavior is to be distinguished from the degree of uncertainty, confusion, and bias that inevitably accompanies any decision associated with contested facts, differing opinions, and choosing a course of action (Campbell 2005). Mystification implies …
What Future for the UN Charter System of War Prevention
President George W. Bush historically challenged the United Nations Security Council when he uttered some memorable words in the course of his September 12, 2002, speech to the General Assembly: “Will the UN serve the purpose of its founding, or will it be irrelevant?” In the aftermath of the Iraq war there are at least two answers to this question. The answer of the U.S. government would be to suggest that the United Nations turned out to be irr…
Human Rights Horizons
In Human Rights Horizons, one of the world's foremost authorities on human rights and international relations maps out the way to a more just and human global society. Borders are being erased; democracy and capitalism are spreading. The world is rapidly changing, and these changes are opening the door for the promotion of human rights to become and integral part of worldwide politics and law.In his provocative new book, Falk discusses the border…
Law in an Emerging Global Village
Already highly acclaimed as a seminal analysis of the New World Order, Professor Falk's Law in an Emerging Global Village clearly establishes a new arena of international law where three distinct historical forces meet and contend: the old Westphalian nation-state model, the global civil society as represented by international human rights conventions, and transnational market forces that pervade nearly every area of life as well as legal practic…

to other causes of violence such as economic intervention. 29 The West assumes that its wealth, power and assurance bestow a normative authority that discounts alternative views. 30 Accordingly, it is hard to envisage that other states would be able to undertake such a campaign, either unilaterally or together, against the wishes of permanent members of the Security Council and without being challenged by them
Myres Smith McDougal (1906-1998)

Superpower intervention in the third world
Prefatory Note
World Demilitarized
The issue of armament and disarmament is essentially a political problem. Armament dynamics today are depicted in five levels: (1) Military-industrial complexes, (2) Superpowers' arms race, (3) Armament transfer to less-developed countries, (4) Arms races within the Third World, (5) Arms as a means of internal repression in the Third World. Disarmament of this structure of world-wide domination requires that a self-limitation of state sovereignty…
Normative Initiatives and Demilitarization
This paper explores and identifies “creative space” in the struggle against militarization. Taking into account the political structures and restraints of different polities, the author examines normative initiatives that challenge the root assumptions of militarization and that can be linked to actual social forces working for principled demilitarization. The author points to the primacy of the Third System in this effort. He argues that, at the…

A World Order Perspective on Authoritarian Tendencies
The paper starts from the premise that because nation-states are the most important actors in the international arena, and also because world order both feeds on and feeds national political situations, a close look into the internal life (including the structures of power and governance) of the states is indispensable for an understanding of the existing world order as for evolving a strategy for changing it into one more just and peaceful. It i…

The Beirut Raid and the International Law of Retaliation
On the night of December 28, 1968, eight Israeli helicopters took part in an attack on the Beirut International Airport. Israeli commandos descended from six of the helicopters (the other two hovered above) that had landed either on runways or at the hangars of the airport. All commercial aircraft belonging to Arab airlines were destroyed by explosives being placed in the nose-wheel well and in the undercarriage well of each plane. The attack res…
The Shimoda Case
In May of 1955 five individuals instituted a legal action against the Japanese Government to recover damages for injuries allegedly sustained as a consequence of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the closing days of World War II. On December 7, 1963, the twenty-second anniversary of the surprise attack by Japan upon Pearl Harbor, the District Court of Tokyo delivered its lengthy decision in the case. The decision has been translate…

New Approaches to the Study of International Law
International law is both a contemplative academic subject and an active ingredient of diplomatic process in world affairs. The failure to maintain the clarity of this distinction accounts for considerable confusion about the nature and function of international law in the world today. An international lawyer is also a citizen of a nation-state who often holds strong views as to preferred courses of foreign policy. One way for him to vindicate th…
The South West Africa Cases
Ethiopia and Liberia instituted litigation in 1960 before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to test the legality of South Africa's administration of the mandated territory of South West Africa. The ICJ received, thereby, an opportunity to deal with a major question of international concern. Hopes were raised that the role of international adjudication would be enhanced by the results of this litigation. The case was also expected to demons…

International Law Aspects of Repatriation of Prisoners of War during Hostilities
On September 2, 1972, the North Vietnamese Foreign Ministry issueda statement announcing the release of three American pilots who were being held in detention since their capture by North Vietnam. The statement gave no particular reason for the release except to affirm North Vietnam's “lenient policy” and to indicate that the release was being made “on the occasion” of an annual independence day holiday called National Day. It was subsequently le…
The Reality of International Law
Machiavelli begins his Discourses by observing that “the curious nature of men, so prompt to blame and so slow to praise, makes the discovery and introduction of any new principles and systems as dangerous almost as the exploration of unknown seas and continents.” The Political Foundations of International Law runs this hazard, as it is both a splendid pioneering venture and vulnerable to all sorts of criticism. Although it most suggestively stud…

Essays on Espionage and International Law
The Complexity of Sabbatino
Banco Nacional de Cuba v. Sabbatino is a seminal decision, interpreting significantly the role of a domestic court in an international law case. At the same time, it avoids reaching definitive results. Very little is settled once and for all by the Supreme Court. This realization prompts caution. Sabbatino will not yield an authoritative interpretation, except, perhaps, as a consequence of subsequent Supreme Court decisions. A commentator must be…
