This course is an introduction to public international law, which is generally the law governing relations among states. Most fundamentally, the course will explain how international law has developed, how modern international law is made, and how it is enforced. As a survey course, we will also examine a variety of subjects regulated by international law, including among many others, how international disputes are resolved; the law of the sea and outer space; state conduct during wars; international trade law; international human rights law; and the activities of the major international organizations and tribunals, such as the United Nations and the International Court of Justice.
