Chittharanjan Felix Amerasinghe's Books

This 2004 book considers customary international law and the application of the rule to, among others, human rights protection and international organizations.

In this 2004 book, Professor Amerasinghe examines the local remedies rule in terms of both historical and modern international law. He considers both the customary international law as well as the application of the rule to, among others, human rights protection and international organizations. Material includes bilateral investment treaties and state contracts. The law is dealt with in the light of state practice and the jurisprudence of international courts and tribunals. The book also ventures into important areas such as the incidence of the rule, limitations, the burden of proof and the application of the rule to procedural remedies, in which the law is less clear. It adheres to the requirements of juristic exposition and analysis where the law has been determined, but at the same time Amerasinghe offers criticisms and suggestions for improving the law in the light of modern policy considerations.

This volume examines the jurisdiction, both contentious and advisory, of the ICJ as a specific permanent international court or tribunal but also brings together in one book the examination of the jurisdiction of certain other tribunals, not excluding most of the other four tribunals or groups of tribunals examined in Jurisdiction of International Tribunals by the same author. Material relating to them is expanded, re-examined and brought up to date. Hence, This volume covers the jurisdiction of: (i) the World Court, i.e., the ICJ and PCIJ a " both contentious and advisory jurisdiction, (ii) the leading International Administrative Tribunals, (iii) the ECHR, (iv) ICSID tribunals, (v) the WTO Panels and Appellate Body, and (vi) the ITLOS. The six systems for the judicial settlement of disputes chosen to be examined in this work are by far the most important in the modern era and deserve close attention.

In the third volume of this series dealing with the Case-Law of the World Bank Administrative Tribunal, Dr Amerasinghe analyses the judgements and Orders handed down by the Tribunal between July 1, 1991 and April 30, 1996. Thus this volume covers Decisions No. 104-46 and Orders made during that period.

Examining the jurisdiction of international arbitral tribunals, International Arbitral Jurisdiction establishes general principles relating to such jurisdiction. The study refers to the principles of consent and its limitations, and also deals with such matters as interpretation of compromis and incidental jurisdiction.

This widely acclaimed treatise examines the law as it is applied by international administrative tribunals in the field of employment relations between international organizations and their staffs. In this second edition, the text has been substantially revised to incorporate new laws and practices. Volume I covers general principles, while Volume II addresses specific subjects such as appointment systems, disciplinary measures, contracts, and salary scales. Each volume is effective on its own, but the two volumes combined form what is undoubtably the most lucid and comprehensive study of international civil service law.

New chapter on judicial organs of international organizations; updated chapter on dispute settlement.
