Demystifying Treaty Interpretation cover

Helps the reader better understand what it is that international lawyers do when interpreting a treaty.

Will appeal to scholars, practitioners and general readers engaging with treaty interpretation at all levels and will enhance the reader's knowledge and mastery of the interpretive process. It will shed light on all those relevant elements and/or connections that the traditional rule-based approach to treaty interpretation largely overlooks.Demystifying Treaty Interpretation doesn't just tell you how treaties are commonly interpreted. It helps you understand also the process of treaty interpretation and its outcomes. The idea that rules of treaty interpretation can guide us to the meaning of treaty provisions, in a simple and straightforward manner, is a myth to be dispelled. This book aims to capture some of the complex and nuanced processes involved in treaty interpretation. It spurs further reflection about how interpretation takes place against the background of concepts, categories, and insights from other disciplines. A useful tool for scholars, practitioners and researchers engaging with treaty interpretation at all levels, the book aims to enhance the reader's knowledge and mastery of the interpretive process in all its elements, with a view to making them more skilled and effective players in the game of interpretation.
