Vasily Andreyevich Nezabitovsky (Russian:Василий Андреевич Незабитовский;Ukrainian:Василь Андрійович Незабітовський; 1824 — 1883) was ajurist, born inRadomyshl in theKiev Governorate of theRussian Empire (present-dayUkraine). He graduated from Kyiv University of St. Vladimir. In 1853, Nezabitovsky transferred to the faculty of international law atKyiv University.
Nezabitovsky is best known for his study ofinternational law and his conception of a global law versus an international law, in the sense of law between nations. Global law or general / omnisocial law meant to protect an individual against allegiance to a given government or state. Omnisocial law was thus one of the first manifestations ofinternational human rights law. Nezabitovsky's saw international law as merely the protection of state's rights vis a vis other states. Omnisocial law was meant to act as a limit on international law.
