Which of the following is included as the subject of International Law ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
In modern Public International Law, States, International Institutions, and Individuals are all recognised as subjects of international law. While traditional positivist theory regarded States alone as subjects and extreme realist views pointed to individuals alone, the International Court of Justice in the Reparation for Injuries Suffered in the Service of the United Nations Advisory Opinion (1949) confirmed the international legal personality of international organisations, and contemporary international human rights and criminal law directly confer rights and impose duties upon individuals.
