Description

This monograph considers the concept of obligations erga omnes, an increasingly important area of contemporary international law. It adopts a pragmatic approach that identifies five common elements among the examples of obligations erga omnes given by the International Court. These five common elements are then discussed in the light of other candidates of obligations erga omnes which have emerged in state practice and international literature.
