State Responsibility, Necessity and Human Rights

April 2011 · Netherlands Yearbook of International Law

Cedric Ryngaert

As far as the topic of ‘necessity and human rights’ is concerned, considerations informed by necessity mainly play a role as grounds for restricting or derogating from human rights on the basis of primary norms contained in international human rights treaties, rather than on the basis of the secondary necessity norm set out in Article 25 of the ILC Articles. The arguably exhaustive treatment of ... [Show full abstract] necessity-informed restrictions and derogations in those treaties largely precludes invocation of the general defence of necessity under the law of State Responsibility. Indeed, the drafters have already factored in necessity when drafting human rights treaties. In so doing, they have incorporated necessity into the law itself as a justification for limitations to human rights, thereby excluding reliance on a broader concept of necessity outside this framework. Beyond the human rights treaties, for that matter, States are very hesitant to invoke necessity as an excuse, as this would amount to admitting that their conduct was in fact unlawful (although excusable). Apart from that, ‘human rights’ may possibly qualify as an ‘essential interest’ excusing non-compliance with non-human rights related international law obligations, but it can be said that the notion of jus cogens may be a more potent tonic to set aside ‘incompatible’ lesser norms of international law.

Landmarks of No-Fault in the Common Law

January 2007

Ken Oliphant

My starting point is an observation of the great Canadian judge and jurist, Justice Allen Linden, a longstanding enthusiast of no-fault compensation. “[N]o-fault,” he wrote, “means different things to different people.”1 It is, in fact, a term applied to a variety of alternatives to compensation by way of traditional, private law processes, not a unitary phenomenon. A major theme of this paper is ... [Show full abstract] that the shape no-fault has taken in different contexts has been dependent upon the social problem it was designed to solve. Yet it is still possible to find enough commonality in the different schemes that have emerged to make no-fault in the common law a worthy subject of study in its own right.

Optics with Gaussian Beams

August 2016

Fedor Mitschke

The general public holds the notion of a laser beam as a cylindrical bundle of rays that travels arbitrary distances without any change of its diameter so that it delivers the same power density wherever it hits. Take note, James Bond: There is no such thing as a cylindrical beam. The laws of diffraction make sure that any beam with a finite diameter widens as it propagates; the wider the beam ...
