This is the first monograph on the idea of obligations erga omnes, an increasingly important concept in contemporary international law. Maurizio Ragazzi employs a pragmatic approach that identifies five common elements among the examples of obligations erga omnes given by the International Court. These five properties are then discussed comparatively.
