This book develops a rational legal design theory of international adjudication in order to explain the variation in state support for international courts. Initial negotiators of new courts, 'originators', design international courts in ways that are politically and legally optimal. States joining existing international courts, 'joiners', look to the legal rules and procedures to assess the courts' ability to be capable, fair and unbiased. The authors demonstrate that the characteristics of civil law, common law and Islamic law influence states' acceptance of the jurisdiction of international courts, the durability of states' commitments to international courts, and the design of states' commitments to the courts. Furthermore, states strike cooperative agreements most effectively in the shadow of an international court that operates according to familiar legal principles and rules. 606 $aInternational courts 606 $aInternational law$vSources 606 $aInternational and municipal law 615 0$aInternational courts. 615 0$aInternational law 615 0$aInternational and municipal law. 676 $a341.5/5 700 $aMitchell$b Sara McLaughlin$01035702 702 $aPowell$b Emilia Justyna 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461443103321 996 $aDomestic law goes global$92455542 997 $aUNINA
