Rosenne's the World Court

Rosenne's The World Court takes a contemporary and interactive take on the UN's main judicial organ. The International Court of Justice, which has remained largely unchanged since its creation in 1945, operates within a growing network of states and international bodies. The book analyses the institution via the prism of its relationship with states - of course - but also with UN organs, international and domestic courts, academia, and non-state actors. It offers topics for class discussions, moot court exercises, and model syllabi. Direct engagement with the writings of leading scholars in international law and international relations helps uncover the Court's political and legal role in a complex international order. The book's novel and multi-disciplinary approach make it an essential resource for students, teachers, and scholars.
