Conclusions.This book investigates whether treaty interpretation at the ECtHR and WTO, which are sometimes perceived as promoting ‘self-contained’ regimes, could constitute a means for unifying international law, or, conversely, might exacerbate the fragmentation of international law. In this regard, the practice of the ICJ on treaty interpretation is used for comparison, since the ICJ has made the greatest contribution to the development and clarification of international law rules and principles. Providing a critical analysis of cases at the ICJ, ECtHR and WTO, both prior to and since the adoption of the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, the book reveals how the ECtHR and WTO apply the general rules of treaty interpretation in patterns which are similar to those used by the ICJ to address difficulties in interpreting the text of treaties. Viewed in the light of the ECtHR’s and WTO’s interpretative practices, both the VCLT’s general rules of interpretation and the ICJ’s interpretative practice serve to counteract the fragmentation of international law.  .International lawLaw—PhilosophyLawPrivate international lawConflict of lawsTradeHuman rightsSources and Subjects of International Law, International Organizationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19010Theories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R11011Private International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R14002International Economic Law, Trade Lawhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19050Human Rightshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R19020International law.Law—Philosophy.Law.Private international law.Conflict of laws.Trade.Human rights.Sources and Subjects of International Law, International Organizations.Theories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History.Private International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law .International Economic Law, Trade Law.Human Rights.341Popa Liliana Eauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut961487BOOK9910300047903321Patterns of Treaty Interpretation as Anti-Fragmentation Tools2179756UNINA
