exam questions for best results
International Law It consists of rules, principles, and well-established practices that
apply to the conduct of states, international organizations, businesses, and individuals
across borders. :) - ANSWER-:) It is important to distinguish between two branches of
international law: public and private



What is Public international law? - ANSWER-Public international law is the law
governing relations among governments and international organizations. It includes the
law of war (yes, we have to fight fair), the acquisition of territory, and the settlement of
disputes among nations.



What is Private international law? - ANSWER-Private international law applies to private
parties (such as businesses and individuals) in international commercial and legal
transactions. It deals with two fundamental issues: Which law applies to a private
agreement? How will people from one country settle their private disputes with parties
on foreign soil?



What is a treaty? - ANSWER-A treaty is an international agreement governed by
international law. Also known as conventions, pacts, charters, and covenants,



What is a convention? - ANSWER-A convention is a treaty on a specific issue that
affects multiple participants,



A protocol is - ANSWER-A protocol is an amendment to a treaty



A treaty is RATIFIED when a nation indicates its intent to be bound by it. :) -
ANSWER-:) To take effect in the United States, treaties must be approved by at least
two-thirds of the Senate.



What is a custom? - ANSWER-A custom is a widely accepted way of doing something.

, Over time, patterns of states' behavior, action, and inaction crystallized into the rules of
CUSTOMARY INTERNATIONAL LAW, which is binding on all states unless they
specifically object or enact a treaty to the contrary. :) - ANSWER-:)



Explain Jus cogens - ANSWER-Jus cogens (or "compelling law," again in Latin) are
norms that have attained the highest legal status in international law.

No exception or derogation is permitted from these fundamental rules. Prohibitions on
slavery, genocide, piracy, and torture are examples of jus cogens.



What is Pacta sunt servanda? - ANSWER-the requirement to abide by a treaty in good
faith—is one such principle



What is comity - ANSWER-When states share common values and public policy, they
defer to the laws and judicial decrees of the other.



Within its borders, a state has sovereignty, or the absolute authority to rule its people
and its territory. :) - ANSWER-:)



Sovereign immunity holds that the courts of one nation lack the jurisdiction (power) to
hear suits against foreign governments (as defendants).

With some exceptions just read them - ANSWER-- A lawsuit is permitted against a
foreign country that waives its

immunity, that is, voluntarily gives up this protection.

- A plaintiff in the United States can sue a foreign country

engaged in commercial, but not political, activity.

- A plaintiff in this country may sue a foreign government that has

confiscated property in violation of international law, provided that the property either
ends up in the United States or is involved in commercial activity that affects someone
in the United States



What are Reparations? - ANSWER-Reparations consists of restitution of the original
situation if possible, compensation if restitution is not possible, or apology if neither is
possible.
