<p>International Law is one of the most vibrant, interesting, and topical fields of study influencing personal, national and global perspectives on how the world works.  In this module, you will study where International Law has come from, why the law is constructed the way it is and the rules around how states should engage with each other.  Essential to how International Law operates in the Twenty-first Century are questions of power, politics and dominance and the ideological separation of the global North and South and of the East and West. Along with the foundational doctrines in International Law, you will examine how peoples can self-determine, how states are formed and when states can use force against other states or individuals, as well as learning about landmark international court cases and their outcomes and effects in today’s world.</p>
