توجه داشته باشید کتاب مناقشه مصونیت دولت در حقوق بین الملل: دعاوی خصوصی علیه دولت های مستقل در دادگاه های داخلی نسخه زبان اصلی می باشد و کتاب ترجمه شده به فارسی نمی باشد. وبسایت اینترنشنال لایبرری ارائه دهنده کتاب های زبان اصلی می باشد و هیچ گونه کتاب ترجمه شده یا نوشته شده به فارسی را ارائه نمی دهد.
نویسنده از طریق تحلیل دقیق قانون نشان میدهد که مصونیت محدودکننده در کشورهای در حال توسعه عمومیت ندارد و فاقد کاربرد است. او همچنین استدلال میکند که قانون forum، یعنی lex fori مخلوق حاکمیت است و بین افراد برابر در برابر قانون، فقط آنچه در بین دولتها به عنوان قانون شناخته میشود، باید به همان اندازه که نظام حقوقی بینالمللی افقی است، اعمال شود.
The author shows through a careful analysis of the law that restrictive immunity does not have vox populi in developing countries, and that it lacks usus. He also argues that forum law, i.e. the lex fori is a creature of sovereignty and between equals before the law, only what is understood and acknowledged as law among states must be applied in as much as the international legal system is horizontal.
