Ku on International Law & Strategic Parnterships

By Lawrence Solum

Charlotte Ku (University of Illinois) has posted Strengthening International Law's Capacity to Govern through Multilayered Strategic Partnerships (South African Yearbook of International Law, Vol. 33, pp. 107-123, 2007) on SSRN. Here is the abstract:

This article examines the multiple layers at which international law now functions - the international, national, and sub-national. It identifies both public and private institutions and practices that have emerged to carry out international law's normative objectives. It ends with a call to expand the formal structure of international law to include the realities of a disaggregated state, a non-hierarchical system of governance, and a transnational political space.

It is a pleasure to recommend Ku's sophisticated work.
