PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL LAW
Unlike private international law which deals with private persons and entities, public inter-
national law refers to the rules which govern nations in their dealings with other states.
Treaties and international pacts are signif‌icant in this subject which is entirely federal in its
jurisdiction. This subject also includes the law as it relates to armed conf‌lict between nations.
To understand this topic as it applies in Canada, it is not necessary to refer to exclusively
Canadian sources. Related topics: INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS, INTERNATIONAL
TRADE LAW.
INTERNATIONAL PUBLIC (DROIT)
Branche du droit qui étudie les relations entre États souverains et certaines relations de par-
ticuliers avec un État étranger. Jadis cantonné aux questions de paix et de guerre, le droit in-
ternational ne cesse de produire de nouvelles normes dans un grand nombre de domaines et
inf‌luence ainsi le droit interne : ENVIRONNEMENT, TRAVAIL, TRANSPORTS (DROIT DES),
PROPRIÉTÉ INTELLECTUELLE, MARITIME (DROIT), AÉRIEN (DROIT), pour ne mentionner
que ces quelques exemples.
