Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The American Supreme Court as an International Tribunal Whatever form the League of Nations may ultimately take it must contain some provisions for the settlement by judicial means of justiciable disputes between members of the League. For about a century and a quarter the Supreme Court of the United States has been entrusted under the Federal Constitution with the decision of such controversies between the States of the American Union. Since it has worked under peculiar conditions and within a very restricted area the student will see that inferences drawn from its history can only be applied with considerable qualification to any Court of the Nations that may hereafter be set up. Nevertheless this is the only permanent court, as distinguished from occasional arbitration commissions, which has hitherto attempted in any degree to discharge the functions of a true international tribunal, and it is therefore clearly desirable that the nature of its work should be as widely as possible studied at the present time. This essay aims at giving in a small compass a reasoned summary of all the inter-State cases hitherto decided in the Supreme Court. As I am not writing primarily for lawyers or other technical students I have so far as possible avoided all technicalities. Questions of procedure, for example, are almost entirely ignored, and I have also passed lightly over many matters which, although important in themselves, are of interest mainly to students of American constitutional law. The Supreme Court has been keenly conscious of its functions as an international tribunal, and it is this aspect of its work which I wish to emphasize.
