Abstract
International courts and tribunals hear and decide hundreds of cases per year, brought by supranational actors, member governments, national courts, and individual litigants. Their decisions are often complied with, and its powers and jurisdictions have grown these last decades. As international courts’ numbers and influence grow so too do challenges to their legitimacy. As such, it is interesting to raise the question of the legitimacy of international courts.
