Full Course Name: International Law & Multilateral Diplomacy A legal scholar claimed 100 years ago that the “breaches of international law have been so numerous and its violations so flagrant in character that many people have been led to think that international law at best have been of little worth and may now be regarded as a thing of the past.” Do these words hold true in 2022 and will they hold true over the next 100 years? In this course we will address what the future of international law and multilateral diplomacy might look like by examining specific issues in international law and how actors can work together to address them. We will examine the factors that influence international law and diplomacy’s reach into new and emerging areas of common concern, such as human rights, the use of force, and technological change.
