  This book advances a new theoretical model on norm change in international law and demonstrates and tests the model by examining a series of practical cases. Beyond this, it divides the cases covered between sovereign rules and liberal rules, and argues that considering the whole cycle of norm change has clear advantages over the competing ‘legalization’ and ‘transnational activist’ approaches.
