International Legal Theory

International legal theory is the study of how countries create and follow laws that govern their interactions. It explores questions about sovereignty, justice, and order among nations, aiming to understand the principles that dictate international conduct. This theory examines treaties, international organizations, and customary practices to ensure peaceful cooperation, conflict resolution, and the protection of rights across borders. It helps explain how international law is formed, applied, and enforced, shaping the framework within which nations operate and cooperate globally.
