Gibraltar: Options Under Consideration in International Politics and in the Framework of the Law of Nations
Abstract
This thorough survey of the Gibraltar dispute which began in 1704 covers the following topics: the conflict's pre-history, emergence and codification through the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, and history up to the current day. The next section delves into the sources of jus gentium, or the law of nations, as well as into the decolonization of Gibraltar. Consequently one reads of the dispute on the international and bilateral levels, and then proposals as to how the dispute might be resolved. An appendix of pertinent eighteenth- and twentieth-century treaty texts in English ensues, with a brief Gibraltar "country" survey as well as maps of the disputed region.
