第六章 Acquisition of territory:Acquisition of territory6.1Acquisition of territory:Chapter 6 Acquisition of territory
6.2Modes of acquisition of territory-Cession:How can a state gain or transfer territory? How many means are there recognized by the international society? In this part, we talk about cession, which is based on treaties.When we refer to the history of world, we know that there were many examples of cession, such as Qing Dynasty and Russian Government. In cession, an agreement is necessary, but do all the treaties about cession of territory are legal and peaceful? History can give us the answer.
6.3Modes of acquisition of territory-Occupation (of terra nullius):We know that another method to gain territory is occupation. This method means that a state can gain a territory if there is a terra nullius, which is a area a territory without occupation by any state. However, with the development of modern society, this kind of method has changed over time. This kind of method almost disappear in the past times. However recent years, there are several states claimed some territory on the Antarctica. Maybe in the future this method will get new development both in theory and practice.
6.4Modes of acquisition of territory-Prescription:Another important method to gain territory is by prescription, which is based on effective control over territory. This kind of method actually come from the ancient Roman law.It means that if a state effectively control a territory smoothly and without any interruption, then, the state gain this territory by prescription. However, what criteria shall be satisfied to judge a prescription? May be we can come to a conclusion that prescription is just a legal claim, could not be really applied in international relations today.
6.5Modes of acquisition of territory--Operations of nature:Another important method to gain territory is through operations of nature. And there are many examples. And today, both the operation of nature and operation of human beings are accepted as legal means to acquire territory.
6.6Modes of acquisition of territory--Adjudication(1):Adjudication is also a mode of acquisition. While in reality ,there are several obstacles. The first question is that international court`s jurisdiction is based on state consents. And another question is that not all the judicial decision are accepted by the losing countries.
6.7Modes of acquisition of territory--Adjudication(2):By conquest, one state can also gain territory. Since conquest is closely related to the use of force, it is usually related to war. Peace and war are two traditional parts in international law. Date back to the old times, use of force was generally deemed as legal methods. Until the U.N. Charter established, use of force turned into an illegal method. So the boundary line is the year 1945. Thus, seen from the history, there was legal conquest according to the states` practices, and now, it is definitely unlawful
6.8Acquiescence, recognition and estoppel:Under the premise that there exists a dispute on a definite area of territory, and if one state declares rights over this territory and the other state stays silent, then it is acquiescence. And estoppel means that a state can not say what it has said before is wrong. It is a legal principle, recognized both by international law and national law all over the world. But how to define estoppel, or to say, what kind of declaration and expressions constitute estoppel in reality.
