What is the Case´s Importance in International Justice?

Studying International Justice requires learning by heart a substantial number of cases, which should be cited when writing an assessment. For instance, when asked whether negotiation is obligatory before initiating proceedings (legal or judicial), it might not be sufficient to answer “no” and reasoning theoretically, as it is a practice in Common Law, which affects International Law (due to the Modern Development of this Jurisprudence in the seventeenth century), to make references to precedents in the Courts or Tribunals.

The series of posts, “What is the case´s importance in International Justice”, aims to help you memorize and connect relevant Case Law to Law and Doctrine concepts, becoming able to give a sound and swift explanation of the concerned matter by being able to remember them. Thus, the objective is not to explain for learning, but to expose it to recall!

So, each post presents a relevant case and gives a quick explanation—perfect for learning by heart! And finally, there is a PDF.

Remember that ELFILHO’s posts on the categories First Steps in International Justice and What is the Case´s Importance in International Justice have no bibliography when they do not either address any specific academic research or break down a specific point of view of an academic professor, judge, arbitrator, lawyer. Finally, those posts are orientated to and focused on interested people (students, practitioners, lawyers) in either Diplomacy or International Law, Public or Private, whose legal knowledge is originated in Roman Law, and English is not their first language. Therefore, you are discouraged from using the site’s translation tool.
