It argues that rebalancing the international law narrative to reflect Africa?s legitimate interests is an urgent priority, and can only succeed through the fair representation of African countries in the creation and interpretation of international law. The book begins by reflecting on the ICJ?s West African Cases and provides a unique perspective on decolonisation as a source of jus cogens and obligations erga omnes. This is followed by a comprehensive analysis of the reception of international law in the Ethiopian legal system, and of the potential implications of Ethiopia joining the WTO. The book then delves into such topical issues as the relationship between competition for natural resources and international investment law, the UN Global Goals and the fledgling international climate change regime, with particular emphasis on the Paris Climate Agreement and their implications for developing countries. Further issues include the Declaration of Principles on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam signed by Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt in light of Nile colonial treaties and contemporary international watercourses law, as well as selected legal implications of the armed conflict in South Sudan. Gathering high-quality scholarship from diverse researchers, and examining a constellation of critical international law issues affecting developing countries, especially African countries, the book offers a unique resource. 410 0$aEthiopian Yearbook of International Law,$x2522-5294 ;$v2016 606 $aInternational law 606 $aPrivate international law 606 $aConflict of laws 606 $aComparative law 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aPublic International Law 606 $aPrivate International Law, International and Foreign Law, Comparative Law 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aInternational Relations 615 0$aInternational law. 615 0$aPrivate international law. 615 0$aConflict of laws. 615 0$aComparative law. 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 14$aPublic International Law. 615 24$aPrivate International Law, International and Foreign Law, Comparative Law. 615 24$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aInternational Relations. 676 $a341 702 $aYihdego$b Zeray$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDesta$b Melaku Geboye$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMerso$b Fikremarkos$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255270103321 996 $aEthiopian Yearbook of International Law 2016$92257085 997 $aUNINA
