Course Notes
Lecture 1: Introduction to Public International Law
▪ Public International Law
It consists of rules and principles that regulates the relations between States, and other entities who possess
rights and/or obligations under international law (international legal personality).
e.g. International agreements, diplomatic relations, trade, protection of human rights, conduct of armed conflict
Historical development

Contribution to the development of international law
o Author of International Law’s most important texts
• The Law of armed conflict and aggression
• Binding force of treaties
• The Freedom of Seas

Theories
- Natural Law [Hugo Grotius]
o Law is not made, but found
o Universal values existing by nature and can be found through human reasoning
- Positive Law [John Austin]
o Law is not given, but man-made
o Law is made by sovereigns (States) and can be found in treaties
International law is positive law (so it’s not written in morality)
Structure of PIL

- Contains the answers required to sperate the powers of sovereign states and uphold peaceful coexistence
- Horizontal/interaction btw states

of international concerns
