REVIEWS AND BIBLIOGRAPHY

Reflections on International Judges and Their Decision-making: A Review Essay on Daniel Terris et al. (eds), The International Judge*

V.D. Degan**

Correspondence: ** Director, The Adriatic Institute, Croatian Academy of Sciences, Zagreb, Croatia (email: degan{at}hazu.hr); Member of the Institute of International Law; Marco Polo Fellow of the Silk Road Institute of International Law, Xi'an Jiaotong University (China); Emeritus Professor of International Law, Rijeka University, Croatia. This paper was finished on 14 August 2008.

In reviewing this valuable book, some reflections were given concerning nominations of candidates for judicial posts, as well as on moral integrity of particular judges in the proceedings before the International Court of Justice on South West Africa (Namibia) between 1950 and 1971. Paradoxically, the controversial Judgment of 1966 had some salutary effects on further development of rules of general international law.
