Description
Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) General Principles as a Source of International Law: Art 38(1)(c) of the Statute of the International Court of Justice by Dr Imogen Saunders
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of Article 38(1)(c) of the Statute of the International Court of Justice. The article is variously lauded and criticised: held up as a panacea to all international law woes or denied even normative validity. The contrasting views and treatments of General Principles stem from a lack of a model of the source itself. This book provides that model offering a new and rigorous understanding of Article 38(1)(c) that will be of immense value to scholars and practitioners alike.
