The Interplay of International and National Law
In our current global political and legal system, international law does not only influence national law, but also depends on it. Can national law set borders for the content of international treaties or does it become more flexible as treaties force interaction with other judicial systems? Can it be used to settle conflicts between national powers? How are treaties, both bi-lateral and multi-lateral, implemented on the domestic level? What is the impact of UN Security Council Resolutions or Human Rights agreements on States’ law and politics?
These are just a few of the numerous questions you could raise and address in your essay. We are looking forward to your contributions!
Deadline: 15 August 2012.
