Chapter authors critically discuss the evolution of core understandings of the relationship between international and domestic law, and how this has been affected by specific actors and contexts in a changing global order, particularly imperialism, decolonisation, the post-Cold War era, and more recent trends, such as geopolitical shifts and the rise of populism. They examine concepts such as monism, dualism and pluralism, as well as the legal techniques and doctrines employed to govern the relationship, including approaches to treaty making, constitutional protection and conventionality control. The Handbook ultimately champions fresh perspectives on interlinkages between the international and the domestic in a multipolar world.
The Research Handbook on International Law and Domestic Legal Systemsis a vital resource for students, scholars and practitioners of public international law, constitutional law, comparative law, and legal theory as well as readers with a background in international relations.
