From Genocide to Climate Change: The Role of International Law in Global Crises | Michael Byers
War rages in Ukraine and the Middle East, while devastating effects of climate change are felt worldwide. In this time of multiple global crises, international law is being invoked more than ever before, raising numerous questions. Do allegations of genocide help the search for peace? Do international treaties have any teeth? Why is Canada involved in five cases before the International Court of Justice? In this bleak moment in history, an understanding of the role of international law in global crises can help us to understand international politics, find paths toward cooperation and see reasons for hope.
