ABSTRACTThe title of Shabtai Rosenne's general course on public international law is inspired by the major work of the medieval Jewish philosopher and jurist, Moses Maimonides. These perplexities follow from the conviction that universal peace will become a reality when the world will have a workable, rational, balanced and accepted general system of international law and impartial and appropriate instruments to enforce it in times of crisis. However, the world has not yet reached that state. The author stresses the importance of the close linkage between law and history, and it is with this in mind that Shabtai Rosenne approaches the principal themes of public international law. He examines the sources or international law, the international courts and tribunals, the use of force, international humanitarian law, human rights, international personality, maritime spaces, space, the written word, responsibilities and remedies. Lastly, the author also pays attention to the United Nations system.
Shabtai Rosenne, ancien ambassadeur d’Israël, emprunte le titre de son cours général de droit international public au philosophe et juriste juif médiéval Moses Maïmonides. Ces perplexités proviennent de la conviction de ce que la paix universelle deviendra une réalité lorsque le monde disposera d’un système général de droit international fonctionnel, rationnel, équilibré et accepté, et d’instruments impartiaux et adaptés permettant de l’appliquer en temps de crise. Or, le monde n’a pas encore atteint ce stade. L’auteur insiste sur le lien étroit qui existe entre droit et histoire, et c'est en gardant ce lien à l'esprit que M. Rosenne aborde les principaux thèmes du droit international public. Il étudie ainsi successivement le thème des sources du droit international, celui des cours et tribunaux internationaux, les thèmes du recours à la force, du droit international humanitaire, des droits de l’homme, de la personnalité internationale, des espaces maritimes, de l’espace, de la parole écrite, de la responsabilité et des voies de recours. Enfin, l’auteur aborde la question du système des Nations Unies.
