Abstract

This short review essay comments on Hugh Thirlway’s outstanding short book The International Court of Justice and expresses appreciation for his expert knowledge about the International Court of Justice (the Court or ICJ) and its law and procedure. The Essay further observes that, in addition to knowledge about the Court and its law and procedure, other factors may have a great role to play in litigation strategy. As such, litigation strategy is a matter not susceptible to broad-brush commentary, but demands tough soul-searching, in the light of all relevant circumstances and of the larger goals to be pursued. This finds illustration in some non-appearance cases and normal cases before the court and other tribunals.

国际诉讼中的知识与策略：关于休·瑟尔威（Hug Thirlway）的《国际法院》的评论性文章，其中提到了不出现

摘要

这篇简短的评论文章评论了休·瑟尔威（Hugh Thirlway）杰出的短篇小说《国际法院》，并对他对国际法院（法院或国际法院）及其法律和程序的专业知识表示赞赏。论文进一步指出，除了对法院及其法律和程序的了解外，其他因素在诉讼策略中也可能发挥重要作用。这样一来，诉讼策略就不会受到广泛评论的影响，而是需要根据所有相关情况和要追求的更大目标进行艰苦的反省。这在法院和其他法庭审理的一些不出庭案件和正常案件中找到了例证。
