International Law

The policies and practices of international law are squarely situated in the context of the evolving international relations that have shaped, and continue to shape, it. The course weaves in and out of legal text and political context, analyzing such areas as origins and sources of international law, subjects of international law, inter-state relations, international organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), dispute settlement, social and economic rights, human rights, economic/environmental rights, the relationship between local and international law, and women's rights.
