The focus of this edited volume is the often-overlooked importance of secondary rules of international law. Secondary rules of international law-such as attribution, causality, and the standard and burden of proof-have often been neglected in scholarly literature and have seen fragmented application in international legal practice. Yet the systemic nature of international law entails that coherent and consistent application of such rules is a key element in reinforcing the legitimacy of decisions of international courts and tribunals. Accelerated development of international law and international litigation, coupled with the fragmented nature of the adjudicatory terrain calls for theoretical scrutiny and systemic analysis of the developments in the judicial treatment of secondary rules. This publication makes three important contributions to the study of secondary rules. First, it offers a comprehensive, expert doctrinal analysis of how standard of review, causation, evidentiary rules, and attribution operate in the case law of international courts or tribunals in fields spanning human rights, trade, investment, and humanitarian law. Second, it comparatively evaluates the divergent layers of meanings and normative expectations attached to secondary rules in international law scholarship as well as in the judicial practice of international courts and tribunals. Finally, the book investigates the role that secondary rules play in the development of the primary rules in international law and for the legitimacy of the decisions of international courts and tribunals. Earlier scholarly works have not problematized the role of secondary rules of international law in adjudication thoroughly. Secondary Rules of Primary Importance in International Law seeks to fill this gap by emphasizing the consequential nature of these secondary rules and argues that the outcome of litigation is fundamentally shaped by the exact standard of proof, standard of review, or attribution basis that is chosen by adjudicators. As such, the book offers an important resource for the study and practice of international law against the backdrop of the wide-ranging and fragmented nature of international adjudication.

Recenzii

This book has risen brilliantly to the challenge of confronting the complex and under-researched questions raised by the secondary rules of international law of state responsibility. Deconstructing the implicit hierarchy between primary norms and the rules that serve to implement them by showing how the latter can, through the way adjudicators implement them, shape the former is a timely project, a quarter of a century after the finalization of the ILC's articles on States' responsibility but also after the proliferation of jurisdictional mechanisms that have become their primary operators. To find out whether these rules are general - or why they are not - is a remarkably original and fruitful angle to reflect on the legitimacy of the jurisdictional decisions that specify them and their impact on the coherence of international law.
This is a timely volume. How international courts apply and shape international law, and what outcomes they reach, is largely determined by secondary rules of international law. Such rules help understand why courts reach certain conclusions in one case and other conclusions in another case, even though the applicable rules of international law and the facts may be largely similar. This volume brings together rich contributions by practitioners and scholars on such secondary rules, that advance our understanding of the practice of international courts and their contribution to the development of international law.
