Description based on print version record.
Summary:Shows through an analysis of the law that restrictive immunity does not have vox populi in developing countries, and that it lacks uses. The author also argues that forum law, the lex fori is a creature of sovereignty and between equals before the law, only what is understood as law among states must be applied in the legal system is horizontal.
