How does an emphasis on principles and value-laden norms impact international law? This book provides a comprehensive analysis of community values within international climate change law, highlighting the tensions between value focus and legal form. It argues that climate change necessitates a fundamental reassessment of the values that political and legal systems should prioritize. The text also addresses the challenges faced by international law amid a backdrop of anti-multilateralism and resistance to a principled, value-driven order. As the first systematic examination of values in international climate change law, it explores how an increasing emphasis on values has led to a decline in legal form compared to the 1990s. By unpacking the tensions and trade-offs between value focus and legal structure, the book offers broader insights into the significance of community values in public international law. The structure includes an introduction, historical context, and a detailed analysis of the international climate regime since 1992, culminating in a conclusion and bibliography.
