Conflict of Norms in Public International Law

Explore the complexities of international law with Conflict of Norms in Public International Law by Joost Pauwelyn, published by Cambridge University Press in 2009. This insightful book addresses one of the most pressing issues in international governance: the interaction and potential conflicts between various branches and norms of international law. As there is no singular 'international legislator' and a diverse array of states, organizations, and tribunals involved in law-making and enforcement, the international legal system remains decentralized. With a comprehensive analysis spanning 560 pages, Pauwelyn provides readers with a thorough understanding of these challenges, making this book an essential read for anyone interested in public international law and its intricate dynamics.
