Summary

'International Institutional Reform' was the theme of the 2005 Hague Joint Conference on Contemporary Issues of International Law, which formed the basis of this book. This international Conference was attended by an interesting mix of established authorities and promising newcomers, practitioners and academics, international institution "insiders" and 'users', which resulted in a lively debate. The contributions of the forty-five speakers and the debate are included in the book.
