Dodge on Withdrawing from Customary International Law

Bill Dodge has published an article called "Withdrawing from Customary International Law: Some Lessons From History," 120 Yale L. J. Online 169 (2010), http://yalelawjournal.org/2010/12/17/dodge.html. In this article, Bill argues that the "default view" of customary international law -- which permitted nations to withdraw unilaterally from some international law rules upon proper notice -- was never the dominant understanding, and furthermore, it ought to have no part in the future of international law.
