INTERNATIONAL JURISDICTION IN CONTEMPORARY INTERNATIONAL LAW
Abstract
The article aims to explore the meaning of international judicial jurisdiction in contemporary international law, specially in contrast with the concept’s traditional meaning. To that effect, first the meaning of jurisdiction will be established and its relation with the judicial function exercised in a legal system. With that framework, it is possible to contextualize the discussions surrounding the international law design of jurisdiction in its judicial form and the institutional template built at the beginning of the XXth Century, materialized at first with the Permanent Court of International Justice. The template is not static and unaffected by development. Currently, beyond the International Court of Justice, there are various bodies concieved for the exercise of the judicial function in international law. From the analysis of such developments, the study aims to map the contrast between traditional international judicial jurisdiction with that currently existant, pointing possible new practical and theorical trends.
