Since 2017, the United States has blocked all appointments to the Appellate Body of the World Trade Organization (WTO), thereby threatening to destroy the WTO's dispute settlement system, one of the most active dispute settlement systems in international law and a central pillar of the multilateral trading system. The United States justifies its blockage with allegations of judicial overreach, claiming that the Appellate Body in its jurisprudence has not complied with the WTO treaties.

Connu tant en droit belge qu´en droit français, l´appel-nullité est un mécanisme procédural d´origine jurisprudentielle qui permet de restaurer immédiatement l´appel quand il est en principe interdit ou différé, lorsqu´une décision a été rendue en violation du droit à un procès équitable. Cet ouvrage, issu d´une thèse de doctorat défendue récemment à l´Université catholique de Louvain, analyse pour la première fois et en détail les origines et le régime procédural de ce mécanisme atypique, tant en droit belge qu´en droit français. Il en fournit les conditions de recevabilité, de forme et de délais, et en précise les effets, notamment sur le plan de l´exécution provisoire. Il propose en outre une théorie générale du recours restauré, tout recours (appel, cassation, opposition ou tierce opposition) ayant vocation à « renaître », lorsque, bien que fermé par le législateur, il constitue néanmoins l´unique moyen de redresser une violation du droit au procès équitable, garanti par l´article 6 de la Convention européenne des droits de l´homme

The Supreme Court of India is a powerful institution at the forefront of public attention in India. It is often engaged in a bitter duel with the government on issues as diverse as the administration of cricket in India to whether liquor shops are allowed on highways. Despite such public prominence, very little attention has been paid to who the judges of the Supreme Court are, how they are appointed, transferred and removed, and what they do after retirement. This book provides an account of these four facets of judicial functioning and analyses the processes in operation today. It argues that each of these four aspects gives rise to significant concerns pertaining to judicial independence, accountability, or both. Its main argument is that both judicial independence and accountability are necessary for 'an effective judiciary', and these two values are not in conflict with each other as is commonly assumed.
