Essays in International Litigation and the Conflict of Laws

By: Lawrence Antony Collins

Lawrence Collins, a leading international lawyer, has made a profound contribution to the study and understanding of the Conflict of Laws in England during the past twenty years. He has successfully combined his practice in one of London's leading law firms with unparalleled academic achievement. This volume combines a number of his most widely acclaimed and influential articles on important aspects of the Conflict of Laws, including a reprint of his fascinating 1992 Hague Academy Lectures entitled "Provisional and Protective Measures in International Litigation." Collins has updated and written introductory prefaces for each article to outline the most important subsequent developments since their original publication. Scholarly and incisive, these essays will be compulsory reading for all academics and practitioners interested in international litigation.

Shaftesbury and the Culture of Politeness

Moral Discourse and Cultural Politics in Early Eighteenth-Century England

By: Lawrence E. Klein

The third Earl of Shaftesbury was a pivotal figure in eighteenth-century thought and culture. Professor Klein's study is the first to examine the extensive Shaftesbury manuscripts and offer an interpretation of his diverse writings as an attempt to comprehend contemporary society and politics and, in particular, to offer a legitimation for the new Whig political order established after 1688. As the focus of Shaftesbury's thinking was the idea of politeness, this study involves the first serious examination of the importance of the idea of politeness in the eighteenth century for thinking about society and culture and organising cultural practices. Through politeness, Shaftesbury conceptualised a new kind of public and critical culture for Britain and Europe, and greatly influenced the philosophical and cultural models associated with the European Enlightenment.

An Analysis of Manstein’s Winter Campaign on the Russian Front 1942-1943:

A Perspective of the Operational Level of War and Its Implications

By: Lt.-Col. Lawrence L. Izzo

This study is a historical analysis of the campaign waged by Field Marshal von Manstein on the Russian southern front during the winter 1942-43. The study begins just after the 6th Army’s encirclement in Stalingrad and describes the four principal phases of Manstein’s campaign: the attempted relief of the 6th Army; the protection of Army Group A as it disengaged from the Caucasus; the prevention of Manstein’s lines of communications from being cut; and the counterblow to regain the initiative. The lessons learned from the campaign provide a perspective of battle at the operational level of war. The factors leading to Manstein’s success are discussed and include: superior generalship at the operational level; superior tactical maturity of the Germans; and German tactical and operational agility. The study describes the transition from the operational defensive to the operational offensive and how a defender can have the initiative. Manstein’s use of depth is explained. The concepts of center of gravity and operational art as they pertain to this campaign are also described. The study concludes with the implications of the lessons learned for a NATO-Soviet conflict in a central European scenario. The study points out that Manstein demonstrated that victory is possible even when forced to react to the enemy’s plan. The ability of NATO to replicate, today, the agility of Manstein’s forces and the synchronization achieved by his commanders is questioned. The implications of NATO’s lack of operational depth, in contrast to Manstein, are described. The impact of changes in force design since World War II are also explained.

Regionalism, Multilateralism, and Deeper Integration

By: Robert Z. Lawrence

Over the past decade, international economic liberalization has been pursued through both multilateral and regional arrangements. In the Uruguay Round, more than one hundred governments pledged their commitment to greater open trade in goods and services, and established new rules under the enforcement of the World Trade Organization. At the same time, however, many regional arrangements have been negotiated--including the European Union and the North American Free Trade Agreement. Nonetheless, controversy still rages about these arrangements. Are regional arrangements stumbling blocks or, in fact building blocks for a more integrated and successful international economy? In this book, Robert A. Lawrence addresses this question and explains both sides of the debate. A volume of Brookings' Integrating National Economies Series
