Customary international law：
Recognition of customary international law
The International Court of Justice Statute defines customary
international law in Article 38(1)(b) as "evidence of a general practice
accepted as law."[1] This is generally determined through two factors: the general practice of states and what states have accepted as law.[2]
There are several different kinds of customary international laws
recognized by states. Some customary international laws rise to the
level of jus cogens through acceptance by the international
community as non-derogable rights, while other customary international
law may simply be followed by a small group of states. States are
typically bound by customary international law regardless of whether the
states have codified these laws domestically or through treaties.
