Reexamining Customary International Law

Reexamining Customary International Law by Brian D Lepard

Reexamining Customary International Law takes on the complex issues and controversies surrounding the history, theory, and practice of customary international law as it reexamines customary law's increasingly important role in world affairs. It incorporates the expertise of distinguished authors to probe many difficult issues that remain unresolved concerning the doctrine of customary law. At the same time, this book engages in a profound exploration of the practical role of customary international law in a variety of important fields, including humanitarian law, human rights law, and air and space law.

'The book edited by Brian DLepard is particularly rich and assembles a number of contributions of a very high quality … In this book the author of the review found responses to questions he has been asking for a long time. This is a work that deserves to be reflected upon and that helps lead to a better understanding in this time of violence of the importance of international law and its sources.' A. J. Bullier, Revue de Droit International et de Droit Comparé
'Overall, the present book presents novel arguments on how to re-examine CIL, and it does so insightfully. … 'Reexamining Customary International Law' represents a stimulating addition to the literature on the sources of international law, and it will be of a significant value to both academics and decision-makers, including lawyers, governments, international and non-governmental organisations and international courts and tribunals.' Ezequiel Heffes, Israel Law Review
