Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution
Abstract
Following a brief introduction of the Singapore Convention, this article discusses the concept of reservations in international law and the importance of such mechanisms for facilitating adherence to multilateral treaties. It then focuses on two elements of the reservation mechanism including their drafting history, purposes, and consequences. In the final section of the article, we explain how these reservations will likely constitute a key component to the success of the Singapore Convention.
