·        There is no authority for the enforcement of the international law.

·        Once a decision is given by International Court of Justice, there is no such power or authority which can get it enforced.

·        As the international laws are based on treaties and conventions, they are interpreted by states according to their self-interests.

·        There is no fear of sanctions, which has resulted in laws being violated frequently by the states as there is no authority for effective sanctions.

·        According to Article 2(7) of UNO Charter, UNO cannot interfere in the domestic matters of the states, which makes international laws ineffective and weak.

·        Treaty of Westphalia provides Public International Law, the structure and order, for developing it in terms of the present-day society.

One liner notes on Public International Law: Part 7

·        In Austin's View International law is certifiably not a genuine law.

·        As indicated by Austin, law is the order of the sovereign rebuffed by sanctions in the event that the order is abused by the person.

·        There should be a legislative authority ordering enacting the rule of conduct and enforcing physical sanction along with the standard of direct and upholding actual authorization.

·        In light of what Austin said, it tends to be presumed that any rule or regulation which isn't enacted or authorized by any prevalent or superior or authoritative or legislative power, can't be viewed as a law and besides, assuming laws are abused, sanctions should be forced.

·        One might say that rules are just ethically and morally legitimate if they aren't given by any sovereign power.

·        If we apply this hypothesis of authoritative power to International law, we will see there is no authoritative or legislative control over the general public, in light of which Austin inferred that International laws are simply founded on morals and ethical quality and isn't correct law.

·        As indicated by Oppenheim, laws are only a collection of rules for human lead inside a local area, which can be implemented by an outer power on the off chance that there's a typical assent of the local area for the equivalent.

·        In light of what Oppenheim said, we can presume that, initially, there should be a local area, furthermore, a collection of rule of lead overseeing the local area should be there and thirdly, normal assent among the local area for the guidelines to be implemented power should be available.

One liner notes on Public International Law: Part 5

·        Prof. L. Oppenheim being the solid ally and supporter of realist theory or pragmatist hypothesis, accepts that as the law of nations is essentially a law between the states, to that degree, subjects of the law ought to be nations as it were.

·        Notwithstanding, the realist theory or pragmatist hypothesis has been scrutinized and criticised on the way that it neglects to clarify the instance of slaves and privateers as under international law, slaves have been deliberated for certain freedoms and rights, while the privateers are treated as foes of humankind.

·        Prof. Kelson is the ally of the fictional theory or anecdotal hypothesis and accepts that the obligations of the states are eventually the obligation of the people of the states and there is no contrast between the international law and civil law or municipal law and have been made to be material on the people as it were.

·        According to Functional Theory, neither state nor individuals are the only subjects.

·        States and individuals both are considered to be the subjects of modern International law as they both have recognised rights, duties and obligations.

·        In the present times, individuals have been conferred with certain rights and duties, e.g. International Covenant on human rights.

·        It is agreed that international organisations are also the subjects of international law.

·        The International Court of Justice held that the United Nation is an international person and is a subject of international law, capable of having rights and duties.

·        According to realist theory, only the Nation/States are considered to be the subject of international laws.

·        Realist theory relies on the principle that it is for the nation/state that the concept of international law came into existence.

·        The countries/states are particular and separate elements, adequately fit to have their own privileges, commitments and obligations, having the capacity to keep up with their freedoms under worldwide law.

·        Supporters of fictional theory suggest that the subjects of international law are the individuals only and that legal order is for the well-being of the individuals.
