Outline of Final Research Achievements

In terms of "juridictionalisation" of international law, this research focused on the international courts and tribunals, which are now expanding in international society in its number and quality. As a result, the following points have been clarified; (1) realisation of international law through litigation, (2) evolutive interpretation of treaties in litigation, (3) dispute settlement and realisation of interests by litigation, (4) creation of case law by a lot of cases and the expansion of foreseeability of law. Furthermore, by analysing the Whaling case between Australia and Japan, it has been clarified that the litigation theory is needed to be combined with the litigation strategy and diplomatic policy.
