The statute provision for the surrender of deserting seamen, applies only to the seamen of governments with which a treaty exists to that effect. There is no express provision to that effect in existing treaties between the United States and Denmark. In the construction of treaties, the general doctrine is, that any special advantage conceded by a party under one article of the compact is in consideration of all the advantages enjoyed by the same party under that and all the other articles. Engagements of extradition, whether of fugitives from justice, or from service, stand in each case on particular stipulations of treaty, and are not to be inferred from the " favored nation" clause in treaties. Attorney-General's Office. October 14, 1853. Sir: I have considered the question presented by the communication of Mr. Bille, Charge d'Affaires of Denmark, of the 26th of August, referred by you to me, and submit herewith my conclusions thereon. On occasion of the arrest in New York of a deserter from the Danish ship " Saga," and the discharge of the alleged deserter by the authorities there on the assumption that there is no lawful authority for such arrest, Mr. Bille appeals to the government of the United States for its decision and action in the premises.

Book Description
Excerpt from Favored Nation Treatment: An Analysis of the Most Favored Nation Clause, With Commentaries on Its Uses in Treaties of Commerce and Navigation This work, or treatise more properly speaking, is published with the hope that it may be of service in determining some of the many questions arising in the interpretation of treaties of commerce and navigation. With most favored nation treat ment in one form or another as the basis of nearly all inter national commercial engagements, it follows naturally that mis understandings as to the scope and meaning of this term are of frequent occurrence. The author's experience in the practical working of international law has led him to realize the need of some work on this subject, and while he by no means entertains the hope that his own may be accepted as authoritative, he be lieves that the citations, given at length, will save the time and labor of the investigator.

Diplomatic Law
Author: Eileen DenzaPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0198703961
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
The 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations has for over 50 years been central to diplomacy and applied to all forms of relations among sovereign States. Participation is almost universal. The rules giving special protection to ambassadors are the oldest established in international law and the Convention is respected almost everywhere. But understanding it as a living instrument requires knowledge of its background in customary international law, of the negotiating history which clarifies many of its terms and the subsequent practice of states and decisions of national courts which have resolved other ambiguities. Diplomatic Law provides this in-depth Commentary. The book is an essential guide to changing methods of modern diplomacy and shows how challenges to its regime of special protection for embassies and diplomats have been met and resolved. It is used by ministries of foreign affairs and cited by domestic courts world-wide. The book analyzes the reasons for the widespread observance of the Convention rules and why in the special case of communications - where there is flagrant violation of their special status - these reasons do not apply. It describes how abuse has been controlled and how the immunities in the Convention have survived onslaught by those claiming that they should give way to conflicting entitlements to access to justice and the desire to punish violators of human rights. It describes how the duty of diplomats not to interfere in the internal affairs of the host State is being narrowed in the face of the communal international responsibility to monitor and uphold human rights.

Book Description
The publication contains an explanation of Most Favored Nation (MFN) treatment and some of the key issues that arise in its negotiation, particularly the scope and application of MFN treatment to the liberalization and protection of foreign investors in recent treaty practice. The paper provides policy options as regards the traditional application of MFN treatment and identifies reactions by States to the unexpected broad use of MFN treatment, and provides several drafting options, such as specifying or narrowing down the scope of application of MFN treatment to certain types of activities, clarifying the nature of "treatment" under the IIA, clarifying the comparison that an arbitral tribunal needs to undertake as well as a qualification of the comparison "in like circumstances" or excluding its use in investor-State cases.
