Questionwhat is the purpose of public international law if there are no effective enforcement mechanisms to apply it? Maria KyriacouAnsweroriginal language english
Alvaro Restrepo: I think we have already answered this question in the previous one.
Public international law does exist, but there are no effective enforcement mechanisms to apply it. I think all nations should jointly seek an agreement about legitimacy and to demand from powerful governments to respect international laws, because otherwise the existance of all these institutions doesn´t make sense.
