Extract

In April of this year the 12th Telders International Law Moot Court Competition was held in the Peace Palace in the Hague. Teams from twelve European countries debated the issues concerning the “Right to Insurgency Case”, which was included in the last issue of the Leiden Journal of International Law. The winner of the 1989 Competition was the Team from the University of Leiden, the Netherlands. In the final round they took on the team from Germany, in the Great Hall of Justice at the Peace Palace, in front of Judge Jose Maria Ruda, Judge Manfred Lachs and Judge Sir Robert Jennings.
