This book reviews the ability of current international responsibility law to address situations where multiple actors combine to produce harmful outcomes.
This volume examines to what extent the dominant principles of international responsibility can address scenarios in which multiple actors combine to produce harmful outcomes. From the perspective of shared responsibility, the contributors explore the potentials and limitations of current law and provide a basis for further development.The Shared Responsibility in International Law series examines the underexplored problem of allocation of responsibilities among multiple states and other actors. The International Law Commission, in its work on state responsibility and the responsibility of international organisations, recognised that attribution of acts to one state or organisation does not exclude possible attribution of the same act to another state or organisation, but has provided limited guidance on allocation or reparation. From the new perspective of shared responsibility, this volume reviews the main principles of the law of international responsibility as laid down in the Articles on State Responsibility and the Articles on Responsibility of International Organizations, such as attribution of conduct, breach, circumstances precluding wrongfulness and reparation. It explores the potential and limitations of current international law in dealing with questions of shared responsibility in areas such as military operations and international environmental law.
