Document Summary
Sources-as many as you think it"s necessary, no right answer, expected to engage with literature two ways a treaty becomes part of treaty-dualism and monism-different from signature and ratification- explain relationship to processes-polish national case. Explain how to interpret pinochet and kazemi cases?- kazemi states state is immune from civil jurisdiction from acts of torture abroad, pinochet-foreign states/heads of state not immune. 1. former head of state-lost im, ration pers. and mat. Kazemi confined to canadian context interpreting state immunity act. Sc its stance on quebec- right to self-determination not a right to secession. Crimean"s stronger claim-oppressed people, neither were colonial people-both have internal self determination-crimea and quebec right to self-determination. Irac formula- fact pattern-state responsibility issue, rivendell cannot be held responsible-wormtongue private individual, either way facts stated suggested he was private person. Worm tongue did not violate any international law-sovereignty, sneaky action. Nationality of gollum-mordor does not have any standing with nottebaum claim on his behalf.
