| Summary | "The Future of International Law" by L. Oppenheim is a scholarly work written in the early 20th century. This publication delves into the evolution and prospects of international law, focusing especially on the organization and civilizational context of global legal frameworks post-World War I. The work is a significant contribution to the discourse on international legal systems, exploring how legal principles can coexist with state sovereignty while addressing the challenges of global governance. At the start of the work, Oppenheim sets the stage by reflecting on the history and shifting paradigms of international law. He asserts that while historical concepts of law among states were minimal and often anarchic, modern international law has emerged through increased cooperation and treaties. The opening discusses the evolution of international law from antiquity to the present, underscoring the need for a structured society of states that recognizes legal order while retaining individual state sovereignty. Oppenheim emphasizes the importance of peace and organization within the family of nations, arguing for a system of international legislation that respects both the equality of nations and the necessity for judicial processes. This foundation leads into a broader examination of international courts and legislative practices that frame the contemporary landscape of international law.
