UE's Learning outcomes

 This course aims to illustrate the importance of international law, in all its forms, in relation to many of the central issues that preoccupy governments and other relevant actors and to highlight the extent to which the assumptions underpinning this body of law have changed in recent decades. The focus is on the norms, actors and processes which contribute to making international law what it is today. The approach seeks to combine theory and practice, although particular emphasis is attached to the actual practice of international law and its impact.
