ABSTRACT
Drawing on his knowledge of the International Law Association, as well as his experience as the chairman of the ILA Committee on Non-State Actors, Math Noortmann provides a short historical overview of the institutional development of the ILA before critically assessing the ILA’s profile on the basis of scholarly opinions and qualifications. He then reevaluates the ILA and its work through the lens of the discourse on non-state actors, i.e. more particularly in the light of the debate on epistemic communities, providing sociological and interdisciplinary insights. He eventually provides a useful overview of the work of the ILA Committee on Non-State Actors.
