It argues that current theories regarding the sources of international law lack a foundation for explaining how states can be required to assume legal obligations that transcend state consent. In making this case, the chapter critiques attempts to expand the concept of customary international law to include certain types of legal norms that form over a short period of time without necessarily reflecting widespread, consistent state practice. Rather, it provides an overview of current theories on the sources of international law and examines how international law is directly connected to the four variables that characterize the structure of the international system: the nature of the constitutive units; the organizing principles of the system; the density of interaction among the units; and the scope and depth of institutionalization within the system"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Consent (Law) 650 0 $a Torture (International law) 650 0 $a Responsibility to protect (International law) 650 0 $a Minorities $x Crimes against. 650 0 $a Political atrocities. 650 0 $a Political violence. 650 0 $a International law and human rights. 650 6 $a Consentement (Droit) 650 6 $a Torture (Droit international) 650 6 $a Responsabilite de proteger (Droit international) 650 6 $a Atrocites politiques. 650 6 $a Violence politique. 650 6 $a Droit international et droits de l'homme. 650 7 $a terrorism. $2 aat 650 7 $a Consent (Law) $2 fast 650 7 $a International law and human rights $2 fast 650 7 $a Minorities $x Crimes against $2 fast 650 7 $a Political atrocities $2 fast 650 7 $a Political violence $2 fast 650 7 $a Responsibility to protect (International law) $2 fast 650 7 $a Torture (International law) $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Cronin, Bruce, 1957- $t Purging the odious scourge of atrocities $d New York : Oxford University Press, [2024] $z 9780197693315 $w (DLC) 2023014256 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011447.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=51D4EE522E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
