How does an emphasis on principles and value-laden norms affect a field of international law? The book gives a comprehensive and systematic analysis of community values in international climate change law. Showing the tensions between a value focus and legal form, the book brings broader insights on the role of values in public international law. Climate change requires fundamental reconsiderations of the values our political and legal systems are to protect. At the same time, international law seems weakened after years of anti-multilateralism and pushbacks against a principled, value-driven international order. Against this backdrop, this book is the first to give a comprehensive and systematic analysis of values in international climate change law and the interplay between value-laden norms and legal form. It shows how an increasing focus on values in the climate change regime has facilitated a decline of legal form in comparison to the 1990s. Teasing out the tensions and trade-offs between a value focus and legal form, the book advances broader insights on the role of community values in public international law.
