520 |a "This book traces the impact that the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, has had on the development of international law. Prominent international experts examine the ICJ's impact on key areas of international law, among them international environmental law, international human rights law, the law of the sea, and the law of immunities. Taken together, these case-studies provide a comprehensive account of the influence the ICJ has had on various areas of international law. The book demonstrates that the Court's influence varies considerably from area to area, depending on a range of external factors, including the influence of other law-making agencies and the density of the existing international legal rules. This book provides key new insights into the role of the ICJ in the international legal system. It makes required reading for anyone studying the ways in which the ICJ has shaped the evolution of international law"--Unedited summary from book jacket
