dc.description | The ineffectiveness of institutional and legal
mechanisms, such as the UN, non-observance of
international law principles by states whose status
assumed a leading role in the maintenance of international
peace and security, and the inability of international legal
mechanisms to effectively combat international legal
violations are making it ever more challenging to discuss
international law reform.
Dr. Lukashuk’s ideas and perspectives on nature and
the evolution of international law extend well beyond
national boundaries or historical phases. He was a skilled
scholar in the subject of international law, and the importance of his views is expanding quickly. At the same
time, it is vital to identify and analyze the influence he has
had on the development of the school and theory of
international law in Ukraine, his native country where he
lived and worked for more than half of his life. | uk_UA |
