The article is devoted to the functional potential of international law as an ideological form of law in overcoming the problems associated with migration processes. Currently, migration is an unavoidable objective (and generally positive) phenomenon. However, it gives rise to a number of problems, among which the main problem is the problem of intercultural interaction and the integration of migrants in the recipient society. This process is often a painful process for both the migrant and his new social environment. It is the problem of social integration that often gives rise to the problem of a conflict between the migrant’s legal consciousness and the external legal requirements of a politically organized society. Using the socio-axiological approach, the author considers the conventional mechanism for synthesizing legal values, which are understood as a kind of super cultural meta-values, and comes to the conclusion that many of them are being formed today at the supranational — international level. The author comes to the conclusion that it is in the space of international legal discourse in the framework of international law as a special ideological form of law that basic, minimal, and therefore universal legal values can be formed. These values, as international law develops as an ideological form of law and its influence on national and international integration legal systems grows, people around the world can rely on in developing strategies of behavior, regardless of their habitat. In this, the author sees the solution to a number of important problems related to intercultural interaction, which is caused by the activation of migration processes in the modern world.

The article is devoted to the strategy of the Russian Federation’s leadership to restore the status of the empire. The prerequisites for such a solution are the economic specialization of the Russian Federation in the system of world economy, the archaic social structure, monopolized power and resources in the hands of the ruling corporation, inertia of the post-Soviet mentality and psychology. The restored imperial model does not include the role of political (civilian) nation as a subject of power, but, on the contrary, it includes a military-administrative apparatus for internal ез пеко and external expansion, and also it needs for loyality of the masses. Faced to the inevitable crisis of this archaic system of domination, Putin made an outright bet on aggression, dynamics, instincts, selfishness, and thus created an alternative to a trend of Westernization’s globalization. Russia’s new subjectivity is formed on the basis of aggressive foreign policy, based on internal consolidation and increased using media for propaganda. An attempt to restore the former status of a superpower stems from the imperial essence of Russian statehood. It is based on the logic of its historical development, objective characteristics of its socio-economic, political, cultural and ideological life. The new Russian leader has become only an instrument of self-reproduction of the imperial mechanism and restoring the traditional identity of Russia, to which the political class and the population of the country returned after unsuccessful attempt of modernization. Imperial identity requires a permanent mobilization, concentration of all forces on the solution of «historical» tasks. External aggression is an indicator of the ability of the imperial organism. Therefore, the majority of Russians actively supported the imperial revanchist course of their leaders. The Russian expansion in the first stages did not meet the considerable resistance of the world community, in particular, by the consolidated West. A number of prerequisites existed in world politics has led to this rezulte. The lack of leadership in the modern world has led to an increasing selfishness of major geopolitical players and to the neglecting of international law by them in their intensive competition for resources and priorities. These factors have led to increased conflict and loss of control of the global system as a whole. If the world returns to the scenario of guided globalization, if the role of international law, international organizations and security structures grows up, if the demonopolization of markets (first of all, energy market) and the liberalization of political regimes becomes true, then Putin’s rate will be a loser. If world chaos in international systems grows, aggression increases, and the trade and industrial cooperation are limited by governments, then a militarized, based on the raw rent Russian empire can get a new historical chance.

The final chapter of this book advances four main conclusions on the role of international law in landscape protection. These relate to state obligations regarding landscape protection, the influence of the World Heritage Convention and the European Landscape Convention, the substantive and procedural nature of landscape rights, and the role of EU law. It is argued that, although state practice is lagging behind the normative developments made in the field of international landscape protection, landscape has contributed positively to the corpus of international cultural heritage law and indeed has emerged as a nascent field of international law in its own right.

International custom “as evidence of a general practice accepted as law”, is considered one of the two main sources of international law as it primarily derives from the conduct of sovereign States, but is also closely connected with the role of the international judge when identifying the applicable customary rule, a function it shares with the bodies in charge of its codification (and progressive development), starting with the International Law Commission. Though mainly considered to be general international law, international custom has a complex relationship with many specific fields of law and specific regions of the world. The editor provides comprehensive research published in the last seven decades, invaluable to everyone interested in the field of customary international law.

To the extent that international trade and development policy employs legal methods, institutions and participants, there is a need to take into account the role of legal culture. There are many different legal cultures in the world, including the widely found common and civil law traditions, as well as the many non-western legal traditions and sub-traditions found within the hundreds of different legal systems spread across the globe. International law has, however, traditionally eschewed consideration of legal culture—arguing that international law is unique, is sui generis, and as such domestic legal traditions were not relevant. Yet, the humans involved in creating and nurturing international legal fields and institutions will themselves reflect the legal culture of their home states, and will often import aspects of those legal cultures into international law. The same must be true of international development law. In addition, international legal fields, such as international development law, must often work within domestic legal systems, and as such they will directly interact with the domestic legal traditions. It is thus important to understand the interaction between the legal cultures reflected in the relevant part of that international law and in that of the domestic legal system. Such an understanding can be useful in ensuring the effective interaction of the two systems. This paper explores these themes, continuing the author’s past and ongoing consideration of the role of legal culture in international law, including its role within institutions such as the World Trade Organization.

This book is presented in two parts, consisting of a total of twenty-three chapters. Part One occupies seven chapters, which begin with a conceptual analysis of wasaṭiyyah, its meaning, definition, scope, and manifestations. This is followed by a review of the source evidence in the Qur’an and hadith, and then a round-up of modern opinion on wasaṭiyyah. The hallmarks of wasaṭiyyah and those of extremism, identification of wasaṭiyyah, its manifestations, and institutional developments on wasaṭiyyah are also discussed under Part One. Part Two looks into the various manifestations of wasaÏiyyah in the context, for instance, of religiosity, moderation and justice, environmental degradation, and financial crises the world has experienced in recent years. Other chapters that follow address subjects such as moderation in jihÉd, the moderating role of disagreement (ikhtilÉf), how wasaÏiyyah can be manifested with regard to women’s rights, the moderating influence of Sufism, wasaÏiyyah and globalization, and moderation in personal character and lifestyle. Two other chapters that appear toward the end bear the titles respectively of “Islam Between Antiquity and the Modern World” and “Reconciling the Concerns of Continuity and Change.” The former looks at Islam’s historical profile, how it played out its role of moderation in its relations with the outside world, whereas the latter looks into the ways Islam can moderate itself from within through the instrumentalities, for instance, of tajdid and islah (renewal and reform), respectively. In almost every chapter, the book explores Islamic principles and doctrines on a number of selected themes that seek to contextualize Islamic teachings with contemporary realities through the lenses of wasaṭiyyah. Part One thus focuses on a conceptual analysis of wasaṭiyyah and its understanding from a perusal of the Islamic text and doctrine, whereas Part Two presents a selected cluster of themes related to wasaṭiyyah and their application to contemporary issues.

AbstractSince 11 September 2001, international law and the community it governs are at a crossroads. While the world appears to be besieged by terrorist threats from non-state actors such as the Al-Qaeda, there is also a substantial risk of super-power unilateralism and arrogance. Amidst these crises, South-Asia occupies a sensitive and vulnerable position. The region is also beset with ethnic, religious, and domestic political conflicts which provide substantial threats to regional peace and security. Against the backdrop of the enormous complications faced by South Asia, the present article considers the role of international and regional institutions in developing forums for establishing peace and security for the region, as well greater promotion of human rights. A particular focus is upon the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) which, it is contended, is an organisation capable of providing a suitable platform for peaceful dialogue within South-Asia.
