About this document
Customary International Law by aphiwenene54 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Customary International Law (CIL) is derived from the consistent practices of states that are accepted as law, requiring both general practice (usus) and a belief in legal obligation (opinio juris). CIL evolves over time and is universally applicable unless a state has persistently objected to a rule during its formation. The relationship between CIL and treaty law allows for treaties to codify existing customs or create new ones, with both forms coexisting and influencing each other.
