It presents central findings on the link between contestation and norm robustness based on four detailed, contemporary case studies - the torture prohibition, the responsibility to protect, the moratorium on commercial whaling, and the duty to prosecute institutionalized in the International Criminal Court. It also includes two historical case studies - privateering and the transatlantic slave trade. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book provides in-depth knowledge on contestation and robustness dynamics of central international norms. Having meticulously collected relevant data and conducted extensive qualitative coding, the authors demonstrate that norms are likely to weaken when challengers contest the validity of a norm's core claims but remain robust when they contest a norm's application and contestation does not become permanent. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThese important findings, comparatively presented here for the first time, are crucial for understanding the much-discussed problems of the contemporary liberal international order. The insights provided establish how different types of challenges will affect global governance mechanisms and which conditions are most likely to create fundamental change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLisbeth Zimmermann, \u003cem\u003eProfessor for International Institutions and Peace Processes, Goethe University Frankfurt\u003c\/em\u003e, Nicole Deitelhoff, \u003cem\u003eChair of International Relations and Theories of Global Order, Goethe University Frankfurt\u003c\/em\u003e, Max Lesch, \u003cem\u003ePostdoctoral Researcher, Peace Research Institute Frankfurt\u003c\/em\u003e, Antonio Arcudi, \u003cem\u003eAssociate Fellow, Peace Research Institute Frankfurt\u003c\/em\u003e, Anton Peez, \u003cem\u003eDoctoral Researcher, Peace Research Institute Frankfurt\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLisbeth Zimmermann holds the Chair of International Institutions and Peace Processes, at Goethe University Frankfurt.
