ABSTRACTTo reflect on the universality of international law, it is necessary to ask whether its application extends to the entire society concerned, no subject is excluded, and its objectives are achieved for the benefit of all. If the concept of sovereignty appears as a guarantee of the independence and recognition of a group, it is also a concept with an inclusive and exclusive function. In this course, Monique Chemillier-Gendreau discusses whether there would be a universality of principle and addresses the obstacles to universality if it is not achieved. First, the author identifies that international law is not universal when it shows its ambition and that the world needs it to be. After identifying the obstacle to universality, she proposes the terms under which such universality would be possible. The author also examines the nature of legal instruments to implement universally applicable standards in the areas where such standards are necessary and the requirement of justiciability of universal international law.
RÉSUMÉCette conférence inaugurale de la session de droit international public de 2011, donnée par Madame Chemillier-Gendreau, porte sur la question de l’universalité du droit international. La conférence commence par l’explication de la situation actuelle du droit international, qui apparait ne pas être universel. Ensuite, la professeure donne des pistes sur des conditions pour qu’il devienne universel, à savoir une modification des instruments du droit international, la justiciabilité ou encore une meilleure adéquation des catégories des sujets du droit international à la complexité des sociétés.
