In this episode, we sit down with Dame Rosalyn Higgins, former judge and President of the International Court of Justice, for her reflections on the role and practice of the Court as well as on her recent project, the Oppenheim’s International Law: United Nations (2017), a two-volume, authoritative study of the legal practice of the UN. Dame Rosalyn discusses the development of the law of immunity of international organizations, the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision and Justice Breyer’s sole dissent in Jam v. International Finance Corporation, and what the case may portend for the future of multilateralism and the independence of international organizations.
