Özet:

 

International law has an innate and seemingly unquestionable claim on its allegedly apolitical character. However, international law is far from being an apolitical  domain. On the contrary, due to systemic influences or by way of politically-informed  or other personal interpretations of law, international law proves to be a very political construct. Under the light of this revelation, one feels compelled to probe deeper  into the political features of international law by way of theory and to debunk its  mythological self-portrait of an apolitical benefactor of humanity. Doing this will  enable the opening up of new perspectives for the much needed improvement of  international law.
