It explores the legal status and influence of judicial “views” and evaluates the ICJ’s impact through “field studies” that trace relevant pronouncements, including those of the Permanent Court of International Justice. Originating from lectures at the University of Glasgow, the volume offers a balanced, evidence-based assessment of judicial influence on contemporary international legal development.","THE DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNATIONAL LAW BY THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE  \nThis page intentionally left blank  \nThe Development of International Law by the International Court of Justice  \nEdited by  \nCHRISTIAN J TAMS AND JAMES SLOAN  \n1  \n3  \nGreat Clarendon Street, Oxford, OX2 6DP, United Kingdom  \nOxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford.

By engaging, they advance views about the state of the law on the points in dispute. All this may seem obvious, but it raises important questions: What is the status of these judicial ‘views’? Do they inﬂuence the development of the law? If so, in what way, and to what extent? This book is an attempt to shed some light on these questions, and to evaluate the impact of one particular court, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), on the development of one particular legal order, international law.  \nThe theme is no doubt familiar, but the approach taken in this collection may be less so: the inquiry is organized in the form of ‘ﬁeld studies’, surveying broadlydeﬁned areas of international law and tracing the impact of ICJ pronouncements—and, where appropriate, those of the Permanent Court of International Justice—on their development. Taken together, these ﬁeld studies offer readers a balanced and nuanced assessment of the Court’sinﬂuence on contemporary international law—a‘judicial impact assessment’, if you will, based on a broad sample of evidence.  \nThis book has its origins in a series of lectures delivered at the University of Glasgow in 2009/10, which have been revised for publication. The series was occasioned by the 75th anniversary of Hersch Lauterpacht’s The Development of International Law by the Permanent Court of International Justice (1934), later expanded to cover the work of the ICJ. The choice of title for this collection isnot meant to suggest that this book is in any way a successor to Lauterpacht’s work, the focus and approach of which is quite different. Instead we have chosen it as a small tribute to Lauterpacht’s lasting inﬂuence on many of the issues addressed in this book, as well as on the study of the ICJ more generally.  \nAs editors, we ﬁrst and foremost would like to thank the scholars who generously accepted our invitation","cbCaimX0qOBXw0dY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimX0qOBXw0dY","pdf",3097172,5,1,429,"English","en",105,"#
