ABSTRACTArthur Watts, barrister and international arbitrator, proposes in this course a systematic study of the legal position of Heads of States, heads of governments and foreign ministers with respect to international law. He draws attention first of all to the status of Heads of States, to different constitutional forms and titles, moving on to talk about the powers attributed to Heads of States that directly concern international law. He goes on to describe their protection, privileges and immunities, their international responsibility and their circumstances of loss of office and exile. Paying specific attention to heads of governments and foreign ministers, Arthur Watts presents their internal legal position and their position with respect to international law. Arthur Watts devotes the last chapter of his course to the legal value of statements made by Heads of States and heads of governments.
Arthur Watts, avocat londonien, propose ici une étude systématique de la position des chefs d’État, des chefs de gouvernement et des ministres des affaires étrangères au regard du droit international. Étudiant tout d’abord le statut des chefs d’États, Arthur Watts s’intéresse aux formes constitutionnelles et aux titres, puis aux pouvoirs des chefs d’État concernant directement le droit international. Il présente ensuite leurs protections, privilèges et immunités, leur responsabilité internationale, et leur situation en exil. S’intéressant aux chefs de gouvernement et aux ministres des affaires étrangères, Arthur Watts présente successivement leur situation en droit interne et leur situation au regard du droit international. Enfin Arthur Watts consacre quelques développements aux déclarations des chefs d’État et de gouvernement.
