Concept:
How can States settle their disputes? How have the mechanisms of dispute settlement on the international level developed historically? When can States bring other States before international courts and tribunals – and when may these bodies hear cases? How do proceedings in international fora look like? What are the effects of decisions rendered by international courts and tribunals? Do States follow them, can they be enforced, and can they have an impact even if they are not complied with?These are some of the questions that the course will tackle. It will do so with a focus on the International Court of Justice, but other international courts and tribunals will also be considered (such as the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, the World Trade Organisation’s Dispute Settlement Body, and inter-State as well as mixed arbitration). We will discuss these issues based on landmark cases as well as recent and current proceedings.
