Summary/Abstract |
This paper considers aspects of the law and practice governing the nomination and election of judges of the International Court of Justice. The processes have led, over the last 85 or so years, to major changes in the composition of the Court. How are those changes to be related to the changing procedural and substantive challenges faced by the judges? This paper suggests possible, if provisional, answers to that large question, which is to be seen in the context of the long struggle to subject State power to law and legal process.
