Legitimacy in International Law
In: Beitrage Zum Auslandischen Offentlichen Recht Und Volkerrecht, v. 194 v.v. 194
There has been intense debate in recent times over the legitimacy or otherwise of international law. This book contains fresh perspectives on these questions, offered at an international and interdisciplinary conference hosted by the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Law and International Law. At issue are questions including, for example, whether international law lacks legitimacy in general and whether international law or a part of it has yielded to the facts of power.
