For International law to be effective states must owe allegiance to an international organization and states are accountable of their actions on their subjects or another nation either physically or economically. U.N for the implementation of International Law convened the International court of justice and formed the NATO and Interpol to police International of their subject nations. International law is only applicable on those states who are a part of U.N and the international community unlike nations that have isolated themselves from the world for example, Cuba, North korea etc.
2. Effective jurisdiction of International law:
Since international law has no established compulsory judicial system for the settlement of disputes or a coercive penal system, it is not as straightforward as managing breaches within a domestic legal system. However, there are means by which breaches are brought to the attention of the international community and some means for resolution. For example, there are judicial tribunals in international law in certain areas such as trade and human rights. The formation of the United Nations, for example, created a means for the world community to enforce international law upon members that violate its charter through the Security Council.
Since international law exists in a legal environment without an overarching "sovereign" (i.e., an external power able and willing to compel compliance with international norms), "enforcement" of international law is very different than in the domestic context. In many cases,
