This rich collection focuses on the broad research interests of Professor Nico Schrijver, in whose honour it was created. Written by a wide range of international scholars affiliated with Leiden University's Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies, the essays reflect Professor Schrijver's important contribution to academia and practice, particularly in the fields of sovereignty, human rights and sustainable development. The authors aim to reflect on changes in international law and on new developments in the diverse fields they explore. "Furthering frontiers" is the research theme of the Grotius Centre. Its exploration in this thought-provoking volume is a fitting homage to Nico Schrijver's achievements on the occasion of his retirement as Chair of Public International Law of Leiden University.

Niels Blokker is Professor of International Institutional Law at Leiden University (Schermers Chair) and was previously Deputy Legal Adviser at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands. Together with the late Henry Schermers, he has published International Institutional Law (Brill/Nijhoff, 6th ed. 2018). Together with Nico Schrijver, he has edited The Security Council and the Use of Force (Brill/Nijhoff, 2005), Immunities of International Organizations (Brill/Nijhoff, 2015) and Elected Members of the Security Council (Brill/Nijhoff, 2020). His most recent publication is Saving Future Generations from the Scourge of War (Brill/Nijhoff, 2021). He is co-founder and co-editor in chief of the journal International Organizations Law Review (Brill/Nijhoff). Daniëlla Dam-de Jong is Associate professor at the Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies at Leiden University and Academic Director of its LL.M. Reg. programme in Public International Law. She wrote her PhD dissertation under the supervision of Professor Nico Schrijver and Professor Larissa van den Herik (Leiden University, 2013). Her monograph International Law and Governance of Natural Resources in Conflict and Post-Conflict Situations (CUP, 2015) has received a research prize by the Foundation Praemium Erasmianum. Vid Prislan is a Postdoctoral researcher at the Amsterdam Center for International Law (ACIL), Amsterdam Law School, where he also teaches in the Master’s programme in International and European Law. Vid conducts research in the areas of foreign investment law and investment arbitration, and has a particular interest in the interactions between domestic courts and investment tribunals. Prior to joining ACIL, Vid was a doctoral researcher at the Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies. His dissertation, which addresses the role of domestic courts in investment arbitration, was supervised by Nico Schrijver.
