The International Institute of Space Law Sample Clauses

The International Institute of Space Law. The International Institute of Space Law (IISL) was founded in 1960. It re- placed the Permanent Committee on Space Law founded in 1958 by the Inter- national Astronautical Federation. The IISL’s objectives include cooperation with international and national institutions in the field of space law, fostering the development of space law and social sciences, and the organization of var- ious colloquia and competitions on the juridical and social science aspects of space activities. The membership of the IISL consists of individual and insti- 233Article 10(2), Taipei Final Draft Convention, see supra note 215 234Article 11(1), Taipei Final Draft Convention, see supra note 215 235Article 13(1), Taipei Final Draft Convention, see supra note 215 70 G´erardine Meishan Goh tutional elected members who are distinguished for their contributions to the development of space law.236 The IISL held its first Colloquium in 1958 in the Hague, the year after the launch of Sputnik I. Since then, legal scholars have scrutinized, deliberated and proposed measures for the settlement of disputes arising from space activities. Legal matters discussed varied from the creation of a special international fund to pay for damages caused by space objects237 to the establishment of a special court to settle dispute arising from space activities. It has been suggested that an agreement providing for compulsory jurisdiction of space disputes, possibly by the ICJ, would be advantageous.238 Conversely, it has also been maintained that compulsory jurisdiction of the ICJ faced severe political difficulties, es- pecially since the United States has never accepted compulsory jurisdiction of the ICJ. It was mooted that establishing a new international arbitration court might be an improved approach.239 In 1980, a new court of arbitration for space law disputes was proposed. This arbitral tribunal would be open to claims from individuals and private enterprises, which cannot make claims under the Liability Convention. It was also suggested that if the Liability Convention were to be revised, the restric- tive notion of liability should be broadened into the more extensive concept of responsibility.240 While the political compromise that led to awards under the Liability Convention being merely recommendatory was acknowledged, the discussions have confirmed that the failure to ensure automatic legal binding effect of the Commission’s awards was the major defect of the Liability Con- vention.241 Th...
