Après avoir souligné la place que la jurisprudence de la Cour internationale de Justice a prise dans les travaux de codification par la Commission du droit international de la responsabilité de l'État pour fait internationalement illicite, l'article analyse l'influence que ces travaux ont exercée sur la jurisprudence de la Cour, qui s'en est parfois inspirée, mais l'a souvent aussi contournée. L'article vise à démontrer l'existence d'un processus qualifié d' «autocatalytique » suivant lequel l'interaction entre la Commission et la Cour contribue à la consolidation du droit international dans un domaine déterminé.

The United Nations is a vital part of the international order. Yet this book argues that the greatest contribution of the UN is not what it has achieved (improvements in health and economic development) or avoided (global war or the use of weapons of mass destruction). It is, instead, the process through which the UN has transformed the structure of international law to expand the range and depth of subjects covered by treaties. The book offers the first sustained analysis of the UN as a forum in which and an institution through which treaties are negotiated and implemented.
