The Max Planck Yearbook of United Nations Law (UNYB) is the first scholarly periodical to focus on activities of the United Nations in the field of international law. By concentrating on issues connected with the UN and its initiatives, the UNYB addresses both legal scholars and practitioners, giving them insights into the workings, challenges and evolution of the UN and international law.

Now in its tenth year, the "Max Planck Yearbook of United Nations Law" has become a much sought after forum for essays in international law related to the UN. Volume 10 (2006) contains articles on topics such as the reform of the United Nations and the future of its Charter; wrongdoing of international civil servants; international law and military operations in space; trade in agriculture and human rights; world cultural heritage protection; and questions of an Internationalized Pouvoir Constituant. This is only a selection and shows the variety of topics. This volume is therefore again a must for any academic or practitioner involved in international law and questions concerning the United Nations.
