China, Anti-hegemonism, and the Scope for International Law to Facilitate Peaceful Power Transitions
International law has always been, and always will be, a political project; hence the thirst of international lawyers for an understanding of their political context.Ultimately no-one can know just what will follow the apparent denouement of the U.S. era in world politics and international law, nor how we will get there.The United States in 2022 announced the end of the post-Cold War era, 1 and many pundits emphasize that we are already in a more…
The Prospects of the High Seas Treaty Decisively Reducing the Negative Biodiversity Impacts of Distant-Water Fishing Operations
International fisheries law has so far proven inadequate to prevent over-fishing on the high seas, a key cause of biodiversity loss in areas beyond national jurisdiction (ABNJ). The negotiation of the Agreement under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ Agreement) provided an opportunity to respond decisively to the wo…
Australia in World Affairs 2011–2015: Navigating the New International Disorder
The Australia in World Affairs series commenced in 1950 and provides a continuous, researched scholarly account of Australia's foreign policy. The twelfth volume, Australia in World Affairs 2011–2015: Navigating the New International Disorder, covered a turbulent period both domestically and internationally. Australia had four Prime Ministers in this period alone, there were growing challenges in the Middle East and Europe, as well as on Australi…
China in the UNCLOS and BBNJ negotiations, yesterday once more
This article compares China’s stance during the UNCLOS negotiations – the starting point of contemporary law of the sea, with its engagement in the latest development of negotiations on the United Nations agreement on biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ). It answers the question, how does China participate in these two important rules-making processes of the international law of the sea? By identifying salient positions China took in …
The Irrelevance of Non-Recognition to Australia's Antarctic Territory Title
It is often noted that few States recognize the seven national claims to Antarctic territory. Australia, one of the claimants, asserts title over 42 per cent of the continent and yet only four States have recognized its claim. Some States have expressly rejected Australia's claim. This article examines the legal significance of such widespread non-recognition. It does so through interrogating the evolution of the legal regime of territorial acqui…
The Imperial Over-Stretch of International Law
In presenting the international law community with a call to action in defense of the liberal international order against a trend towards “authoritarian international law,” Tom Ginsburg prompts us to assess the systemic dynamics at play in the contemporary international legal order. In doing so, we should be cautious about assuming that the consequences for international law of any particular actor will be positive or otherwise. A couple of decad…
Sovereignty as Normative Decoy in the R2P Challenge to the Charter of the United Nations
The Responsibility to Protect ( R 2 P ), touted in 2009 as ‘the most dramatic normative development of our time’, is highly contentious, having generated a scholarly literature far greater than its real-world impact would seem to warrant. This may well be because of its potential to challenge and displace core existing norms, the most widely cited of which is sovereignty. This paper draws on the theory of Cognitive Structures of Cooperation ( csc…
The history of Australian legal opposition to Japanese Antarctic whaling
Whaling has been a consistent theme in Australia’s relations with Japan since the 1930s, Australia having endeavoured to regulate, restrict, or bring to a complete halt Japan’s Antarctic whaling virtually since it began. Australia’s motivations have been mixed, involving at various points, some combination of protection of Australia’s coastal whaling industry, concern for Australia’s security, for safeguarding Australia’s Antarctic territorial cl…
Climate Change and the UN Security Council
China's nine-dash line, international law, and the Monroe Doctrine analogy
John Mearsheimer has compared China's attitude towards the South China Sea to the Monroe Doctrine of the United States. Mearsheimer does not accord international law much weight and certainly does not regard it as determinative of political outcomes. But many observers of China's disputes in the South China Sea look to international law for rules and processes that could facilitate peaceful resolution of the disputes. In doing so they are various…
Implications of climate change for the UN Security Council: Mapping the Range of Potential Policy Responses
Over the last decade there has been an evolving debate both within the United Nations and within the scholarly literature as to whether it would be feasible, appropriate and/or advantageous for the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to consider climate change to be within its remit. Given that irreversible global warming is under way and that this will inevitably have multiple global security implications—and indeed, that the Council has to s…
Australia's decision to initiate Whaling in the Antarctic: Winning the case versus resolving the dispute
On May 31, 2010, Australia instituted proceedings before the International Court of Justice in the case of Whaling in the Antarctic (Australia v. Japan). Although Australian politicians had for some time threatened such a course of action, the decision to proceed with international litigation took many observers by surprise, most basically because Japan appeared to be in a strong legal position and the risks associated with the case appeared grea…
International Law, US Power: The United States' Quest for Legal Security
Securitizing climate change: International legal implications and obstacles
On 17 April 2007 the United Nations Security Council held its first debate on climate change, energy and security. Since then, and despite a number of reports emphasizing the security implications of climate change, there has, at least in diplomatic circles, been a move away from the previous trend towards accepting climate change as a question of international security. This is primarily due to the possibility of the Security Council taking the …
Intergovernmental Organizations as Disseminators, Legitimators, and Disguisers of Hegemonic Policy Preferences: The United States, the International Whaling Commission, and the Introduction of a Morat…
The recognized benefits to a hegemon of working through an intergovernmental organization (IGO) include legitimating its policy preferences, disseminating them with efficiency, and promoting stability. While most would agree that international law is important in this process, it is less easy to map exactly how international law fulfils this role. Using the cognitive structures of co-operation (CSC) approach to the political interpretation of mul…

Does Legality Really Matter? Accounting for the Decline in US Foreign Policy Legitimacy Following the 2003 Invasion of Iraq
The perceived legitimacy of US foreign policy plummeted in the wake of the US-led 2003 invasion of Iraq. Most commentators would agree that international law, or at least US actions in relation to international law, had something to do with this decline. But, what the recent debate as to how best to restore US legitimacy has starkly revealed, is that we know little as to just how international law accords legitimacy to certain foreign policy ende…
The Political Life of Public International Lawyers: Granting the Imprimatur
The intervention of international lawyers in public debate in the US, UK and Australia regarding the 2003 invasion of Iraq spotlighted the political agency of international lawyers in according or withholding legitimacy from major foreign policy decisions and raised the question of how to delimit the scope of international lawyers' political agency. Rejecting the close fit of either the transnational advocacy network or epistemic community concep…

Is there room for international law in realpolitik: Accounting for the US ‘attitude’ towards international law
The United States has in recent years come under considerable criticism for its apparently cynical attitude towards international law. While the US administration refers often to the importance of the international rule of law it appears unwilling to itself be bound by that law. While the US took the lead in the post World War II years in establishing international law and institutions it has in recent years appeared unwilling to give those same …

The regime has prided itself on addressing issues ahead of crisis situations; and, since the conclusion, and subsequent entry into force, of the Environmental Protocol, with its protectio…

Japan's renunciation of territorial rights in Antarctica and Australian diplomacy
By Article 2(e) of the 1951 Treaty of Peace, Japan renounced ‘all claim to any right or title to or interest in connection with any part of the Antarctic area.’ This paper traces the process by which Australian diplomacy ensured the inclusion of such a provision in the Treaty and assesses the contemporary significance of the article. While in the unlikely event of the breakdown of the Antarctic Treaty System, Japan would be legally entitled to ma…
The Academic as Service Provider: Is the Customer 'Always Right
The bottom line in academics feeling uncomfortable about regarding students as customers is the impression that from a marketing view 'the customer is always right'. While Australian universities have not yet undergone a 'customer care revolution', it is important that educators and educational managers better understand how a marketing perspective can assist them to operate effectively within a market environment. Good service provision does not…

Explaining compliance with international law: Broadening the agenda for enquiry
Current theoretical understanding of compliance with international law is based on an assumption that international law consists of a finite set of objective, compulsory rules. This image does not match reality but the two can be reconciled through theorising international law as ideology. Such an approach subsumes questions as to why states do or do not obey law and what influence international law has on foreign policy decision making. By placi…

Terra Nullius and the Mabo Judgement of the Australian High Court: A Case Study of the Operation of Legalist Reasoning as a Mechanism of Political‐Legal Change
The Australian High Court's Use of the Western Sahara Case in Mabo
Recent cases before the High Court of Australia have raised the question as to the appropriate degree to which international law should influence Australian law and politics. 1 Crucial to the reasoning in the leading judgment of the landmark 1992 Mabo case, 2 by which the Australian judiciary recognised for the first time a native title to land, was the finding that Australia had not been terra nullius at the time of colonisation. The leading jud…
Issues in Australian Foreign Policy: January to June 1998
The three foreign policy issues that dominated headlines in the first six months of 1998 were the renewed tensions in the Persian Gulf, the financial and political crisis in Indonesia, and the staging of nuclear tests by India and Pakistan. In the first instance none of these issues directly involved Australia and yet the Howard Government judged each of them as potential threats to Australia's national interests and thus to require an appropriat…

International Lawyers: Handmaidens, Chefs, or Birth Attendants? A Response to Philip Alston
Alston gently chided international lawyers for not having paid greater attention to the possible impacts on international law of globalization. The timeliness of the wake-up call would be hard to dispute, but Alston's discussion of globalization serves to highlight the difficulty international lawyers face in assessing contemporary political developments given the inadequacy of dominant frameworks within which to understand how international law …
