On the occasion of the 2016 Warsaw Summit, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Allied Nations endorsed the NATO Policy on the Protection of Civilians, which was developed with NATO Partners and in consultation with the United Nations and other international organisations. This Policy is further bolstered by Allies’ pledge to implement a concrete Action Plan, which will be reviewed regularly by the Council. The added value of the Policy does not lie in the novelty of any particular aspect of its content as such, rather, in its overarching and comprehensive character. Its guiding principles include that all NATO and NATO-led operations, missions and activities are conducted in accordance with applicable international law, which may include international humanitarian law (IHL) and international human rights law (IHRL). The Policy is not limited to either the law of armed conflict or times of peace alone: this promises to facilitate its application to peace-time activities as well, and leaves sufficient room for a context-sensitive approach. More so, it recognises that long-term, self-sustained peace, security and stability is best achieved in cooperation with, among other actors, civil society, such as relevant human rights organisations. This article seeks to describe this landmark achievement from a number of perspectives, focusing primarily on legal aspects relating to the Policy. It will review (i) its scope and extent in terms of operational aspects, (ii) possible measures, (iii) beneficiaries and context and, finally, (iv) several aspects pertaining to its human rights dimension that will continue to be integrated in NATO’s current and future operations, missions and activities, including the on-going Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan.
在2016年华沙峰会上,北大西洋公约组织(北约)盟国批准了《北约平民保护政策》,该政策是与北约合作伙伴在与联合国和其他国际组织协商后制定的。盟国承诺实施一项具体的行动计划,安理会将定期审查该计划,这进一步支持了这一政策。该政策的附加值不在于其内容的任何特定方面的新颖性,而在于其总体性和全面性。其指导原则包括,北约和北约领导的所有行动、任务和活动都是根据适用的国际法进行的,其中可能包括国际人道主义法和国际人权法。该政策不仅限于武装冲突法,也不限于和平时期:这也有助于将其应用于和平时期的活动,并为采取注重具体情况的做法留出了足够的空间。更重要的是,它认识到,与相关人权组织等民间社会合作,才能最好地实现长期、自我维持的和平、安全与稳定。本文试图从多个角度描述这一里程碑式的成就,主要关注与该政策相关的法律方面。它将审查(i)其行动方面的范围和程度,(ii)可能的措施,(iii)受益者和背景,最后,(iv)与人权层面有关的几个方面,这些方面将继续纳入北约当前和未来的行动、任务和活动,包括正在进行的阿富汗坚决支持特派团。

Health Rights Impacts by Agrochemical Business: Legally Challenging the “Myth of Safe Use” 农药企业对健康权利的影响:从法律上挑战“安全使用神话”

The past decades have seen enormous growth in the agrochemical industry. Its pesticides and fertilisers promise to farmers worldwide an increase in yields and a decrease in labour input. The expansion of the pesticides industry results in tremendous costs to others – in the form of chronic illness, acute injuries, and environmental degradation. Such costs are borne disproportionately by farm and plantation workers in the Global South due to a perilous combination of weak regulation, lack of training and access to information, and meager resources for protective equipment. Agrochemical companies continue to claim that their products are safe when used correctly by farmers and regulated effectively by the state. Advocates have attempted to use litigation as a recourse for challenging the agrochemical industry. Civil litigation against pesticides manufacturers can directly address the injuries suffered from pesticide poisoning, but such lawsuits face a number of challenges and all too often leave workers and farmers without access to an effective remedy. This article explores the potential of complementary litigation which challenges the harmful sales practices of pesticide companies, as well as the precautionary principle, as an alternative to protect pesticide users against hazards.
在过去的几十年里,农业化学工业取得了巨大的发展。它的杀虫剂和化肥向世界各地的农民承诺,产量会增加,劳动力投入会减少。农药行业的扩张给其他人带来了巨大的成本——以慢性病、急性伤害和环境退化的形式。由于监管不力、缺乏培训和信息获取,以及防护设备资源匮乏,全球南方的农场和种植园工人承担了不成比例的成本。农药公司继续声称,如果农民正确使用并受到国家的有效监管,他们的产品是安全的。倡导者们试图利用诉讼作为对农用化学品行业提出质疑的手段。针对农药制造商的民事诉讼可以直接解决农药中毒造成的伤害,但此类诉讼面临着许多挑战,往往使工人和农民无法获得有效的补救。本文探讨了补充诉讼的潜力,该诉讼挑战了农药公司的有害销售行为,以及预防原则,作为保护农药使用者免受危害的替代方案。

Accountability Gaps in the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) Framework 单一监督机制框架中的问责差距
IF 0.6 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-11-22 DOI: 10.5334/UJIEL.463
A. Karagianni, M. Scholten
The first judgement of the General Court (EU) pertaining to the Single Supervision Mechanism (SSM) raised an issue concerning the source of the shared supervisory powers in the system of EU prudential supervision. In the General Court’s view, the SSM Regulation conferred on the European Central Bank (ECB) exclusive powers to carry out specific prudential supervisory tasks vis-a-vis all euro area credit institutions (significant and less significant). At the same time, the ECB’s national counterparts assist the former in implementing its supervisory tasks vis-a-vis less significant credit institutions. We argue that such a scheme requires a clear accountability relationship also between the ECB and the national competent authorities (NCAs), something that is not fully fledged in the current legal framework.
普通法院(欧盟)关于单一监督机制的第一项判决提出了一个关于欧盟审慎监督制度中共享监督权力来源的问题。普通法院认为,《单一监管机制条例》赋予欧洲央行(ECB)对所有欧元区信贷机构(重要和次要)执行特定审慎监管任务的专属权力。与此同时,欧洲央行的国家同行协助前者执行其对不太重要的信贷机构的监管任务。我们认为,这样的计划还需要欧洲央行和国家主管当局(NCA)之间建立明确的问责关系,而这在当前的法律框架中还没有完全成熟。

Awakening the Leviathan through Human Rights Law – How Human Rights Bodies Trigger the Application of Criminal Law 通过人权法唤醒利维坦——人权机构如何触发刑法的适用
IF 0.6 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-11-22 DOI: 10.5334/UJIEL.462
M. Pinto
This article analyses the role that human rights bodies play in triggering the application of criminal law. By examining the jurisprudence of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the European Court of Human Rights, the UN Human Rights Committee, as well as other human rights bodies, the article discusses how these institutions have started imposing on states positive obligations to criminalise, prosecute and punish serious human rights violations. While criminal law has traditionally been seen as a threat to fundamental rights, human rights bodies have contributed to presenting criminal law in a positive vein, as an essential instrument of human rights protection. The mainstream of the human rights movement has largely lauded the trend. This article challenges this view, by presenting the pitfalls of using human rights law to extend the reach of criminal justice in order to ensure that perpetrators are held accountable. Not only the imposition of duties to criminalise and punish ends up restricting the accused’s fundamental rights and neglecting the conceptualisation of criminal law as ultima ratio, but the invocation of criminal-law enforcement might also contribute to enhancing the coercive power of the state and, therefore, make state abuses more likely.
本文分析了人权机构在触发刑法适用方面发挥的作用。通过审查美洲人权法院、欧洲人权法院、联合国人权委员会以及其他人权机构的判例,文章讨论了这些机构是如何开始向各国施加将严重侵犯人权行为定为刑事犯罪、起诉和惩罚的积极义务的。虽然刑法传统上被视为对基本权利的威胁,但人权机构积极推动刑法成为保护人权的重要工具。人权运动的主流在很大程度上赞扬了这一趋势。这篇文章挑战了这一观点,提出了利用人权法扩大刑事司法范围以确保追究肇事者责任的陷阱。不仅规定了定罪和惩罚的义务,最终限制了被告的基本权利,忽视了刑法作为终极比率的概念,而且援引刑事执法也可能有助于增强国家的强制力,从而使国家滥用权力的可能性更大。

The Identification of Customary Rules in International Criminal Law 国际刑法中习惯规则的识别
IF 0.6 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-11-22 DOI: 10.5334/UJIEL.434
Yudan Tan
This paper aims to examine whether a different methodology has emerged to identify customary rules in the field of international criminal law. For this purpose, this paper briefly touches upon debates regarding customary law as a source and an interpretative aid of international criminal law. It then critically studies the identification methodology of customary law to seek whether a new approach deviating from the classic two-element (State practice and opinio juris) approach is emerging in academia. It also recapitulates some cases of international criminal tribunals to ascertain whether these tribunals have formed a distinct method for custom identification. Finally, it explores the unique characteristics and difficulties in identifying customary rules in international criminal law. It concludes that a different method has not been developed in academia or adopted by tribunals in practice to identify customary rules in international criminal law. The two-element approach still serves as guidance for custom-identification in general, but a flexible application of it is acceptable in specific cases. International practitioners should be cautious in the identification of customary rules in international criminal law, so as to prosecute and punish suspects of international crimes without endangering the principle of legality.
本文旨在研究在国际刑法领域是否出现了一种不同的方法来确定习惯规则。为此目的,本文简要介绍了关于习惯法作为国际刑法的来源和解释援助的争论。然后,它批判性地研究习惯法的识别方法,以寻求学术界是否正在出现一种偏离经典双要素(国家实践和法律意见)方法的新方法。本文还概述了国际刑事法庭的一些案件,以确定这些法庭是否形成了一种独特的海关鉴定方法。最后,探讨了国际刑法中习惯规则识别的独特性和难点。它的结论是,学术界没有发展出一种不同的方法,也没有法庭在实践中采用一种不同的方法来确定国际刑法中的习惯规则。双元素方法在一般情况下仍然可以作为客户识别的指导,但是在特定情况下可以灵活地应用它。国际从业人员在确定国际刑法习惯规则时应谨慎,以便在不危及合法性原则的情况下起诉和惩罚国际犯罪嫌疑人。

A bundle of bundles of rights – international treaties regarding migration in the light of the theory of property rights 一系列的权利——从产权理论的角度看关于移民的国际条约
IF 0.6 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-11-22 DOI: 10.5334/UJIEL.448
Stefan Schlegel
A growing body of literature has recently discussed the access of migrants to property rights over assets as a requirement for the protection of their human rights and basic interests. Little attention has been paid, however, to the fact that the right to decide over an individual’s migration to a given place is itself a property right. This paper aims to close this gap by describing international treaties regarding migration as mechanisms to transfer bundles of such property rights. This approach embarks to compare the distributional effects of different treaties regarding migration. It also aims to demonstrate that such treaties often do not limit themselves to transactions of property rights among States, but are capable of transferring property rights from States to individuals. A property rights approach highlights that the exclusion of would-be immigrants from would-be receiving countries means to impose a (negative) external effect on them and their country of origin. A review of different types of treaties demonstrates the tendency in all of these treaties to internalise such external effects. The paper thus predicts that the prevention of migration will get more expensive as the external effects of this activity will have to be internalised to a growing degree.
最近,越来越多的文献讨论了移民获得资产产权的问题,这是保护其人权和基本利益的一项要求。然而,很少有人注意到这样一个事实,即决定个人迁移到某个地方的权利本身就是一种财产权。本文旨在缩小这一差距,将有关移民的国际条约描述为转让大量此类财产权的机制。这种方法开始比较不同移民条约的分配效果。它还旨在表明,这些条约往往不局限于国家之间的产权交易,而是能够将产权从国家转移给个人。产权法强调,将潜在移民排除在潜在接收国之外意味着对他们及其原籍国施加(负面)外部影响。对不同类型条约的审查表明,所有这些条约都倾向于将这种外部影响内化。因此,该论文预测,由于这种活动的外部影响必须在越来越大的程度上内化,预防移民的成本将变得更高。

The ICJ’s Judgement in Somalia v. Kenya and Its Implications for the Law of the Sea 国际法院对索马里诉肯尼亚案的判决及其对海洋法的影响
IF 0.6 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-11-22 DOI: 10.5334/UJIEL.450
Kai-Chieh Chan
By its judgement of 2 February 2017, the International Court of Justice took up jurisdiction to adjudicate the maritime dispute between Somalia and Kenya. Notwithstanding surrounding controversies, the Court set out important rules concerning the law of treaties. The main implication of the judgment is that the Court embraced a more objective definition of treaties and identified the significance of context as well as travaux preparatoires in treaty interpretation. By doing so, the Court further established itself as the default adjudicator in law of the sea disputes unless the reservation to its jurisdiction is sufficiently precise. This case note summarises the facts and analyses the potential ramifications of this judgement on international dispute resolution.
根据2017年2月2日的判决,国际法院接管了对索马里和肯尼亚之间海事争端的裁决权。尽管存在争议,法院还是制定了有关条约法的重要规则。该判决的主要含义是,法院接受了对条约的更客观的定义,并确定了背景以及准备工作在条约解释中的重要性。通过这样做,法院进一步确立了自己作为海洋法争端默认裁决人的地位,除非对其管辖权的保留足够准确。本案例说明总结了事实,并分析了这一判决对国际争端解决的潜在影响。

How to Continue a Meaningful Judicial Dialogue About EU Law? : From the Conditions in the CILFIT Judgment to the Creation of a New European Legal Culture. 如何继续就欧盟法律进行有意义的司法对话?:从CILFIT判决的条件到欧洲新法律文化的创造。
IF 0.6 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-08-02 DOI: 10.5334/UJIEL.455
J. V. Dorp, Pauline Phoa
The aim of this article is to better understand the conditions outlined in the CILFIT judgment and their role in creating a meaningful dialogue about European Union law. For these purposes two distinct views on the relation between language and meaning are utilised, as has been argued for by Ludwig Wittgenstein in his Philosophical Investigations. In the CILFIT judgment both of these views surface, which imply different challenges to the participants of the EU dialogue. In the conclusion, we suggest how these challenges can be met in order to facilitate a mutually meaningful dialogue about EU law.
本文的目的是更好地理解CILFIT判决中概述的条件,以及它们在就欧盟法律进行有意义的对话中的作用。正如路德维希·维特根斯坦(Ludwig Wittgenstein)在其《哲学研究》(Philosophy Investigations)中所主张的那样,出于这些目的,我们使用了关于语言和意义之间关系的两种不同观点。在CILFIT的判断中,这两种观点都浮出水面,这对欧盟对话的参与者来说意味着不同的挑战。最后,我们建议如何应对这些挑战,以促进关于欧盟法律的相互有意义的对话。

This article offers an analysis of how theories on constitutional revision can help understand crises that threaten legal unity. The Catalonian crisis represents the case study, and is discussed from the perspective of constitutional theory. The article starts out from a conceptualisation of ‘legal unity’ as the organisational as well as political claim of constitutions to provide unity within a certain legal order, which in the end comes close to the idea of a unified national state. The article refers to the constitutional theories of Carl Schmitt and, the lesser-known Hugo Krabbe, to help increase the understanding of constitutional change and, to connect these insights to the Catalonian case. Schmitt’s claim is that constitutional law is indeterminate and thus in need of the sovereign’s decision. In this analysis, it is made clear that Schmitt’s argumentative scheme in which a distinction is made between friends and enemies in political conflict is unhelpful in addressing the Spanish crisis. Indeed, Schmitt moves beyond descriptive and explanatory goals to defend a normative rejection of liberal political decision-making. By contrast, Krabbe argues for the determinacy of constitutional law. According to Krabbe, constitutional law is finally embedded in ‘legal consciousness’, inherent to all human beings, and which can be determined by majority rule. Even if this answer may not be entirely convincing, it is maintained that this theoretical perspective could nevertheless benefit cases such as the Catalonian constitutional crisis, if as a consequence claims of both the Catalan as well as the Spanish sides based on the idea of ultimate sovereignty over a demarcated territory were dropped.
本文分析了修宪理论如何帮助理解威胁法律统一的危机。加泰罗尼亚危机是一个典型的案例研究,并从宪法理论的角度进行了讨论。这篇文章从“法律统一”的概念出发,即宪法在一定法律秩序内提供统一的组织和政治主张,最终接近统一的民族国家的理念。这篇文章引用了卡尔·施密特和鲜为人知的雨果·克拉布的宪法理论,以帮助增加对宪法变革的理解,并将这些见解与加泰罗尼亚案件联系起来。施密特的主张是,宪法是不确定的,因此需要君主的决定。在这一分析中,可以清楚地表明,施密特在政治冲突中区分朋友和敌人的辩论方案对解决西班牙危机毫无帮助。事实上,施密特超越了描述性和解释性的目标,为规范性地拒绝自由主义政治决策辩护。相比之下,克拉布主张宪法的决定性。克拉布认为,宪法最终嵌入了“法律意识”,这是所有人固有的,可以由多数人规则决定。即使这个答案可能不完全令人信服,但人们坚持认为,如果加泰罗尼亚和西班牙双方基于对划定领土的最终主权主张被放弃,这种理论观点仍然有利于加泰罗尼亚宪法危机等案件。
