Abstract:

In light of the 150th anniversary of the Institut de Droit international, a book has been published on its history and work. It contains 45 chapters (16 FR, 29 EN) written by several of its members. Part I focuses on its evolution through a historical lens and the role it has played so far, discussing its mission, composition, codifying role, external relations, dissemination, and the interaction of private international law and public international law. Part II focuses on its contribution to the codification and development of international law in different areas: settlement of disputes, sources, ius in bello and ius ad bellum, individual and collective human rights, regulation of spaces, and harmonization of private international law.  The book addresses the challenges and controversies that arose in the course of the work; the resolutions adopted, their impact and the way forward. It concludes with the position of the Institute in today’s world and its future.
