International Organizations and Global Justice

Description
José Alvarez reflects on the state of international law and international organizations at the beginning of the 21st Century and the extent to which they are taking seriously the demands of justice. In this regard, Alvarez is of the view that both international law and international organizations are very much in need of reform. If only because of this, the redistribution of power at the international level, with the emergence of new powers, makes it necessary to adapt international law and the international order to the new conditions of the time. In the process, it is not only the relevance of international law that will be preserved but also its ability to satisfy the contemporary demands of justice.
