In his most
recent book, Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen argues that development should be
measured not in dollars but in terms of freedom. Development, in his view,
consists in the systematic elimination of obstacles to human freedom. When we
think of development in terms of freedom, we cannot ignore the importance of
law and legal systems to the enterprise of human development. In the modern
age, it is through law that we assert our freedoms and through law that we
reconcile our own freedoms with those of others. This holds true as much
between nations as it does between individual citizens. Progress in our
increasingly interconnected world will be effected in large part through the
development of international law. One measure of progress, therefore, might
be the degree of respect accorded by various nations to international law.
Article 51 of the Constitution of India embodies this idea. Please accept my
best wishes for a successful Conference. It is through such efforts that the
object of Article 51 will be achieved in letter and in spirit. |

I was very moved
by the care you have taken to prepare for the Conference, beginning with
efforts two years ago. I was also
touched that students of City Montessori School expressed their concern over
the state of the world by obtaining over 100,000 signatures on a petition to
Mr. Annan to safeguard world peace on behalf of the children. Surely world peace is the most important
topic. I congratulate your students
and yourself as convener on the steps you have taken. Yours efforts will bear fruit. |

Hon’ble Mr Justice Richard Goldstone Judge Constitutional Court of South Africa Private Bag X7 Braamfontein 2017 South Africa Email: r_goldstone@hotmail.com |
Article 51 of
the Constitution of India articulate the principles which are essential to a
future of international peace and security. In our globalized world, an
international rule of law is essential if we are to avoid the massive
violation of fundamental human rights which has been the hallmark of the 20th
Century. The alternative to a rule of law for the international community, as
also in the case of any national state, is anarchy. The challenge is to find
and accommodation for the respect for international law consistent law
consistent with national sovereignty. Article 51
appropriately recognises the role of international law in the modern world,
the respect which all people should have for each other and the need for the
settlement of disputes before they lead to war. The
Constitutional Court of South Africa is the guardian of one of the youngest
constitutions based upon equality, democracy and the rule of law. We frequently
draw inspiration from the decisions of the courts of India, the most populous
democracy in the world. We appreciate too, the steadfast campaign by your
country in support of the anti-apartheid campaign and the friendship we have
received since South Africa has become a free and democratic country. It is this
context that I am disappointed not to be able to participate in and benefit
from your deliberations. I have no doubt that they will contribute to the
building of a better world in which there is respect for the human dignity of
all people and tolerance for the religious and cultural differences which we
should we celebrate rather than denigrate. |

I heartily endorse
your goal of the creation of a World Parliament. The formation of such a
noble institution would elevate international law to a plane it richly
deserves: that of an incandescent beacon of justice, bringing light and hope
to those of our fellow human beings cursed by poverty, disease, slavery and
totalitarianism. |

Hon’ble Mr Justice Sonam Tobgye, Chief

The Judiciary of
Bhutan presents its compliments to the City Montessori School, Lucknow on
organizing a conference pertaining to Clause (b) of Article 51 of the
Constitution of India. We are
standing at the threshold of a future with threat and crowning glory. Timely action will avert the threat and
wisdom will lead us to glorious results.
Therefore, I am glad that your institution has taken a timely and
historic role to facilitate the convergence of a galaxy of luminaries to
discuss about the subject “enacting international laws which would be
enforceable on all the countries and people of the world.” Sages and prohets
have taught the undying message of peace and security and civilization has
recognized the primacy to foster respect for international law. I wish the conference all success. |

My best wishes
for the success of your conference. In discussing your conference topic,
namely respect for international law, you may be interested to know that the
Constitution of our young democracy (Constitution of the Republic of South
Africa, Act No 108 of 1996) contains a provision similar to your sec 51(c),
in that our sec 39(1)(b) provides that a court, tribunal or forum, when
interpreting the Bill of Rights, “must consider international law...”
it would appear, therefore, we could benefit from your experience and
deliberations in this regard. |

I am happy to
learn that the City Montessori School (CMS), Lucknow is going to organize the
first International Conference on "World Peace and Article 51 of the
Constitution." In rapid
globalisation of the world there can be no question that nation must march
with the international community and the Municipal Law must respect rules of
International Law even as nations respect international opinion. The comity of nations requires that rules
of international law may be accommodated in the Municipal Laws even without
express legislative sanction provided then do not run in conflict with the
acts of Parliament. Law is
enforceable if there is sanction behind it. Since there is no such sanction
behind International Law there is dire need to enact enforceable
International Law to safeguard the future of world's children by peaceful
settling of territorial and international disputes. I must
congratulate the organizers for organizing such a Conference. I wish the
Conference all success. |

Subsection (c)
of Article 51 calls on the Government of India to strive towards respect for
international law. This is undoubtedly a very progressive rule in the field
of Constitutional Law. I have no
doubt that other nations should look into the possible importation of such a
rule into their respective constitutions.
The co-operation between nations to maintain world peace is absolutely
essential to our survival as a human species. One only has to think of the nuclear arsenal of the world to
illuminate this pint. It is therefore
my firm opinion that the establishment of some form of "World
Parliament" is not only a possibility which needs to be explored, but an
absolute necessity. As all great
advancement in social evolution, the development of a "World Parliament"
will unfortunetely not happen overnight.
Any laws made by a "World Parliament" have to be enforced or
the laws will carry no sanction in the event of contravention. This is in my opinion the problem that the
United Nations (UN) system could not overcome. Consensus could never be reached between member states to
establish a UN Army, which could serve as enforcer of decisions made by the
UN. It is therefore submitted that a
"World Parliament" cannot function effectively without a
well-trained, well-equipped military force.
National Governments will have to understand the necessity of
surrendering at least some of their sovereignty to the "World
Parliament". If no sovereigty is
ceded to the "World Parliament", then decisions made by such a
Parliament are not supreme and therefore, in the global context, irrelevant. |

I support your

is such huge injustice and inequality through the World that still enormous
funds are being spent on arms. Even a small proportion of this money if
directed to solving the hunger and inequalities would be of great effect. We
are not going to see this happen until we see a World that is more at peace.
Then slowly nations can release funds from defense (or aggression) to
relieving the tragedy of basic human needs against starvation and
disease. I wish you a very good
