- Course objectives
- The course describes the reflections and processes of institutionalisation of international law that appeared already in the second half of the 19th century and acquire their striking power in respect of postmodern global international community. International organisations reflect not only on the public interest in international law but also have become a modern medium and vehicle of international law-making. The course includes the analysis of two institutions that represent universal and regional (European) levels: the UNO and the Council of Europe. The UN has primarily originated as the "machinery for peace". Its institutional weaknesses appear in everyday confrontations with the situations that endanger international peace and security. Moreover, the "powerful basis" of the organisation reflect the international stimuli after World War II and does not take the current structure of "societas maxima" into consideration. The course aims especially at the issues of peace and security and possible individualisation of these social values. The Council of Europe and its law-making role as an effective device for conventional instruments is emphasised for complying with the harmonisation purposes in Europe that shares the rule of law, respect for human rights, pluralistic political system and democracy.
