Abstract
This Report discusses the work of the ILC on identification of customary international law and proposes comments on that work, in the light of the AALCO members' concern with protecting their sovereignty, which manifests itself in three overarching considerations — the promotion of the quality in decision-making in the identification process, the reliance on only the quality exercise of State functions, and the representativeness of the State practice and opinio juris at issue.
Keywords: customary international law; identification of customary international law
