Details

Paul F. Diehl and Charlotte Ku’s new framework for international law divides it into operating and normative systems. The authors provide a theory of how these two systems interact, which explains how changes in one system precipitate changes and create capacity in the other.

A punctuated equilibrium theory of system evolution, drawn from studies of biology and public policy studies, provides the basis for delineating the conditions for change and helps explain a pattern of international legal change that is often infrequent and sub-optimal, but still influential.>

Contents:: 1. Introduction; 2. A new framework for analysis and a model for legal change; 3. The influence of normative change on the operating system; 4. Extra-systemic adaptations to systemic imbalance; 5. The influence of the operating system on normative change; 6. Implications and future directions.
