Abstract

Also available as an e-book Pan-Africanism offers a unique vantage point to study Africa’s encounters with international law : first, as a continent whose political entities were excluded from the scope of application of the Eurocentric version of international law that was applied among the self-styled club of “civilized nations” ; second, through the emergence of African States as subjects of international law willing to contribute to the reform and further development of the law as a universal interstate normative system; and third, as members of the OAU and the AU acting collectively to generate innovative principles and rules, which, though applicable only in the context of intra-African relations, either go beyond those existing at the universal level or complement them by broadening their scope. This study examines those encounters through the various stages in the evolution of Pan-Africanism from a diaspora-based movement, engaged in the struggle for the emancipation of the peoples of the continent, to groupings of independent States and intergovernmental organizations which continue to promote African unity and influence the development of international law to make it more reflective of diverse legal traditions and values.

Abstract

L’élaboration de règles internationales est l’une des principales fonctions de l’UNESCO. C’est en même temps un outil important pour la réalisation des buts de l’Organisation pour lesquels elle a été créée. Outre les conventions et les recommandations, les déclarations adoptées par la Conférence générale promulguent un ensemble de principes et de normes qui doivent guider l’action des États membres dans un domaine d’activité précis. Ce premier volume de cet ouvrage en deux tomes sur l’action normative de l’UNESCO contient les actes du colloque organisé à l’occasion du 60e anniversaire de l’Organisation. Les themes développés dans Élaboration de règles internationales sur l’éducation, la science et la culture couvrent les méthodes d’élaboration et de mise en oeuvre ; les objectifs constitutionnels et les obligations légales ; la collaboration internationale ; et les aboutissements.

This first of a two-volume work on Standard-setting in UNESCO contains the essays presented at a symposium held on the occasion of its sixtieth anniversary. Topics addressed in Normative Action in Education, Science and Culture include methods of elaboration and implementation; constitutional objectives and legal commitments; international collaboration; and impact.

Abstract

This work is an introduction to the origins, law and institutions of the African Union (AU). It examines the evolution, structures, legal standards and operational activities of this Pan-African organization, which replaced the Organization of African Unity (OAU) 10 years ago. Although the AU came into being in 2001, so far there is no comprehensive work which addresses the institution, its organs and structures, the scope of its operations, its legal framework and the normative standards underpinning its objectives and functions or those underlying the conventions, charters and protocols it has enacted or inherited from its predecessor, the OAU. It is the aim of this work to fill that void. It has been conceived as a manual, and not as a scholarly treatise, so as to serve as a basic introduction to the institutional and legal framework of the AU and its affiliated organizations. It is meant to offer a concise and clear picture of the nature and workings of a continental institution aimed not only at promoting peace and unity in Africa but also at ensuring human security, development, human rights protection and good governance for the peoples of Africa.

Abstract

In oktober 2020 staan we stil bij het 75-jarig bestaan van de Verenigde Naties. Dit vormt het slotstuk van de nationale viering 75 jaar vrijheid. 75 verhalen geven een persoonlijke blik op de geschiedenis van de VN. Een breed palet aan perspectieven en persoonlijke getuigenissen tegen een achtergrond van grote vaak historische wereldgebeurtenissen. Elk verhaal vertelt waar het toen, vandaag, en morgen om gaat en brengt ons terug naar de waarden van waaruit de VN is ontstaan: internationale solidariteit en een gezamenlijke inspanning voor vrede en veiligheid.
