general principles of law

 
     
  The Statute of the International Court of Justice states that in settling disputes in accordance with international law it shall apply not just treaties and customary international law but also the general principles of law recognized by civilized nations. It may be that this 1945 statement was the last official expression (in public) of the belief that some nations are less than civilized.
