Abstract

International order is based upon values which find their source in international law. International law governs the relations between states, has application to international organisations, and protects individuals through a variety of international treaties. International law is constantly evolving in response to new contexts. Evidence of these developments can be found in new treaties, additional protocols to existing treaties, jurisprudence from international tribunals and emerging customary practice of States. The ever-evolving nature of international law necessitates up-to-date legal analysis and in-depth research into the impact of emerging legal norms on global issues and perspectives.
