from Part III - A Flight from Justice
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 December 2021
Hersch Lauterpacht was a strong proponent of international adjudication. He was perhaps the foremost exponent among international lawyers for a strong role for the international judiciary in preventing war and resolving disputes between states. He was a particularly strong backer of the Permanent Court of International Justice, which was created by the League of Nations.
