Along with treaties, international cases are some of the most important
documents of international law. The primary source of international cases
is the International Court of Justice, a part of the United Nations. Its
predecessor, the Permanent Court of International Justice, rendered
decisions from 1922-45. The current court started in 1945 and is based
in The Hague.
