handle is hein.hoil/trateco0002 and id is 1 raw text is: EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION TO 1986 SUPPLEMENT The Introduction to this book concludes as follows: The information flow in this volume stops as of 1 March 1982. Regular supplements will keep the volume up-to-date. p. xix. This 1986 Supplement, the first such regular one to appear, brings the reader up-to-date as of 1 June 1986. Over the past four years, there have been no new inter- national agreements on transnational terrorism, although it is worth noting that the International Convention Against the Taking of Hostages (p. 86) has entered into force and has now been ratified by the United States, and that the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (p. 113) has received the advice and con- sent of the Senate and should be ratified in the near future. The number of States Parties to the conventions proscrib- ing transnational terrorism, however, has increased, in some instantes remarkably, as have the Declarations and Reservations these States have made upon their joining them. Thus this supplement is needed to give the reader an accurate report of the extent to which States are bound by the conventional international law norms governing transnational terrorism. The materials in this supplement track the order of the international agreements and supplementary materials in the main volume: Conventions, States Parties, Declarations and Reservations, and, where appropriate, U.S. Action and Cases. Throughout the materials contain page references to the main volume, making reference back relatively easy. This supplement was prepared with the assistance of Ms. Janice N. Mack and Mr. Steven A. Snyder, students at the University of Virginia School of Law, whose efforts were greatly aided and abetted by the helpful assistance received from Ms. Lois Adler and Ms. Katherine Cobates of the Treaty Affairs Section of the Office of the Legal Adviser of the U.S. Department of State.
