1 CHAPTER 1 APPLICATION AND RELEVACE OF INTERNATIONAL LAW I. INTRODUCTION This chapter introduces the basic principles of modern public international law. It provides an overview of the historical and theoretical context within which that law has developed and discusses the functions international law performs. Examples of the application of international law on the national and international plane are also provided. II. PROBLEMS OF DEFINITION §1-1. Traditional definition. International law used to be defined as the law that governs relations between states. Under the traditional definition, only states were subjects of international law; that is, only states were deemed to have rights and obligations that international law recognized. Whatever benefits or burdens international law conferred or imposed on other entities or individuals were considered to be purely derivative, flowing to these so-called “objects” of international law by virtue of their relations to or dependence upon a state. §1-2. States under international law. When international lawyers speak of “states”, they mean sovereign or nation-states. To qualify as a state under international law, an entity must have a territory, a population, a government and the capacity to engage in diplomatic or foreign relations. States in federal unions, provinces or cantons usually lack the last attribute, which is a vital element of sovereignty. See generally 1 Oppenheim′s International law 121-23 ( R. Jennings ＆ A. Watte, eds. 1992 ). §1-3. Modern definition. Contemporary international law, although still considered to be principally the law governing relations between states, is no longer deemed to be exclusively limited to those relations. It has a wide reach and is more properly defined as law that deals “ with the conduct of states and of international organizations and with their relations inter se, as well as with some of their relations with persons, whether natural or juridical.” American Law Institute, Restatement of the Foreign Relations Law of the United States ( Third )§101(1987). §1-4. Modern subjects. Today intergovernmental international organizations, and even individuals, albeit to a more limited extent, are and can be the subjects of rights and obligations under international law. The United Nations and various specialized international or regional organizations such as, for example, the International Labor Organization and the Council of Europe, enjoy the legal capacity to enter into treaty relations, governed by and binding under international law, with states and other international organizations. See Advisory Opinion on Reparation for Injuries Suffered in the Service of the United Nations, 1949 I.C.J. 174 ( Apr. 11 ); Advisory Opinion on Legality of the Use by a State of Nuclear Weapons in Armed Conflict,1996 I.C.J. 66 at 75 ( July 8); See also infra ch.3. The direct responsibility of individuals for serious international crimes, such as crimes against humanity and war crimes, and the development of the international law on human rights, indicate
