  • Judges ad hoc of the International Court of Justice

    Open AccessCharles N Brower, Massimo LandoARTICLELeiden Journal of International Law2020References: 9

    Judges ad hoc of the International Court of Justice have been widely criticized for their supposed lack of impartiality. This criticism may seem all the more powerful if one takes into account that judges ad hoc were created as a means to avoid the Court’s bias and appearance of bias. However, recent developments in the appointment of judges ad hoc indicate that, far from being a detriment to the states’ perception of the Court’s impartiality, ju…

    Charles N Brower, Abby Cohen SmutnyARTICLEThe American Review of Canadian…1997

    Introduction Following the very close results of the 1995 Referendum on Quebec's independence, and with the expectation of another referendum to be held within the next few years, a practical and informed consideration of the effect that independence would have on the 272 bilateral treaties and other international agreements between Canada and the United States of America and the many multilateral conventions binding the two countries is necessar…

    In recent years, several courts in the United States have denied requests for pre-award attachments on the ground that such remedies were contrary to the parties’ agreement to arbitrate, and thus to the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (New York Convention or Convention).

  • The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 in Practice

    Open AccessCharles N Brower, F Walter Bistline et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of International…1979Cited by: 3

    The U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (the Act), which became effective on January 19, 1977, sought to codify the substantive law of sovereign immunity in the United States, while also modifying it in certain respects. An even more important goal was to make the application of such law more uniform, fair, and hence predictable, by relieving the Department of State of the responsibility to determine claims of such immunity, and remitti…

  • Litigation of Sovereign Immunity before a State Administrative Body and the Department of State

    Open AccessCharles N BrowerARTICLEAmerican Journal of International…1977

    When President Nixon and Prime Minister Tanaka of Japan, held a summit meeting in Hawaii on August 31-September 1, 1972, doubtless no one expected they were laying the foundation for one of the most curious sovereign immunity cases in the annals of American jurisprudence. The resulting communique, however, which placed the leaders' seal of approval on extensive Japanese purchase commitments in the United States, became the basis for a Japanese cl…
