The World Court offers a comprehensive and authoritative examination of the Permanent Court of International Justice, an institution central to the development of international law in the early twentieth century. Written by Antonio Sánchez de Bustamante, an eminent jurist and a judge of the court itself, this work delves into the historical foundations, legal framework, and practical operations of the first global judicial body designed to resolve disputes between nations.

The text explores the transition from ad hoc arbitration to a permanent judicial system, analyzing the Statute of the Court and the selection process of its judges. Bustamante provides unique insights into the legal philosophies and political challenges that shaped the institution during its formative years following the Great War. By detailing the court's jurisdiction and its role within the League of Nations framework, the author illustrates the ambitious effort to establish a rule of law on a global scale.
