Abstract:
How has the European Union engaged with the work of the United Nations International Law Commission (ILC) and what does this engagement tell us about the EU’s own understanding of its relationship with, and contribution to, public international law? Teresa Cabrita’s PhD, defended on the 11th of January, answers this question. Below, she gives a brief overview of what led her to this question, its implications for both EU and international law, and some of her conclusions.
