International Law and Islamic Law can be Explored and Improved to Enhance Modern International Relations

DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c87507) has announced the
addition of "International Law and Islamic Law" to their offering.

   The relationship between modern international law and Islamic law
has raised many theoretical and practical questions that cannot be
ignored in the contemporary study and understanding of both
international law and Islamic law. The significance and relevance of
this relationship in both academic and practical terms, especially
after the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001, is now well
understood.

   Recent international events in particular corroborate the need for
a better understanding of the relationship between contemporary
international law and Islamic law and how their interaction can be
explored and improved to enhance modern international relations and
international law.

   The articles reproduced in this volume examine the issues of
General Principles of International Law, International Use of Force,
International Humanitarian Law, International Terrorism, International
Protection of Diplomats, International Environmental and Water Law,
Universality of Human Rights, Women's Rights, Rights of the Child,
Rights of Religious Minorities, and State Practice.

   The essays have been carefully selected to reflect, as much as
possible, the different Islamic perspectives on each of these aspects
of international law.

   Key Topics:

   --  General Principles of International Law

   --  International Use of Force

   --  International Humanitarian Law

   --  International Terrorism

   --  International Protection of Diplomats

   --  International Environmental and Water Law

   --  Universality of Human Rights

   --  Women's Rights

   --  Rights of the Child
