ASSIGNMENT 2 (SEMESTER 1)..
DUE DATE: March 2025..

QUESTION 1:
1. Pacta Sunt Servanda – This is the principle in international law that requires states to fulfill their
international obligations in good faith, ensuring that treaties and agreements are honored without
evasion or dishonesty.
2. Incorporation – This term refers to the process by which customary international law becomes part
of the domestic legal system. In a monist system, international law is automatically integrated into
domestic law; in a dualist system, it may need to be specifically adopted by national legislation.
3. Monism – In legal systems that follow a monist approach, treaties are considered directly applicable
and automatically integrated into the domestic legal framework without the need for further
domestic legislation. In these countries, international law holds equal status with municipal law.
4. Res Judicata – This principle applies in domestic legal systems and international law, but it does not
typically extend to international disputes between states. Res judicata prevents the re-litigation of
matters that have already been adjudicated, but in international law, new cases with similar issues
can still be brought before different forums.
5. International Organization – This refers to a collective of states formed by treaty, possessing its own
legal personality distinct from its member states, with the capacity to enter into international
agreements. A classic example of this is the European Union.
