Samkharadze, D.G. Custom as a source of international law.

Abstract: Scope of customary law is one of the most complicated issues in the sphere of international law. Its importance is due to the fact that it binds even non-parties to the conventions, as well as due to the fact that many spheres and institutions of international law contain customary law norms, and that new customary law norms appear in various spheres of international law, where due to various reasons it is impossible to apply regulation by conventions. In D.G. Samkharadze’s article one can find analysis of nature and characteristics of customary law norms, study of positions of leading Russian and foreign legal scholars, and of international practice.
