The International Court of Justice and the Judicial Function

ISBN: 9780199646630 出版年：2014 页码：369 Hernandez, Gleider I Oxford University Press

The International Court of Justice embodies a compromise between ideas of state sovereignty and pressures for a stronger 'international community'. This book elaborates on the Court's role in the international legal system, and argues that as a result of this tension, the Court's contribution to international law is subtle rather than progressive.
