"In recent years States have made more and more extensive use of the International Court of Justice for the judicial settlement of disputes. Despite being declared by the Court's Statute to have no binding force for States other than the parties to the case, its decisions have come to constitute a body of jurisprudence that is frequently invoked in other disputes, in international negotiation, and in academic writing. This jurisprudence, covering a wide range of aspects of international law, is the subject of considerable ongoing academic examination; it needs however to be seen against the background, and in the light, of the Court's structure, jurisdiction and operation, and the principles applied in these domains.

The reader will understand the continuity between the Permanent Court of International Justice, an organ of the League of Nations and the International Court of Justice, the judicial organ of the United Nations. The Optional Clause of Compulsory Jurisdiction is a symbol of the continuity between the PCIJ and the ICJ". "A la man...
