Jus Cogens: New Public International Law Blog

Although the editor is anonymous (his/her home
page indicates that he/she is an attorney admitted
to practice in the State of New York with a specialized
interest in public international law), this new blog
might be worth checking out.

Juscogens.net is a website "dedicated to recent
developments in the field of public international law."
Sources include the opinions of international tribunals,
international conventions, international organizations,
international custom, and the judicial decisions and
teachings of qualified publicists. Each major source
is tabbed on the home page for quick access and the
site is keyword searchable.

I especially like "This Week in International Law
Scholarship," a feature that cites a selection of new books
and articles on issues in international public law.
