Any dreams that Europe had at last become too mature a society of states for the continent to be afflicted by bloody international disputes have been shattered in recent months. This book examines both the sources of disputes - the delimitation of boundaries, ethnic differences, human rights violations, environmental damage, drug control, etc. - and the most appropriate methods for settling them. Many of the contributors have played major roles in devising and operating dispute settlement procedures.;This bilingual (English and French) volume is designed to serve as a ""vade-mecum"" for diplomats and officials, and a reference work for students, academics, and all those interested in international law and relations.
