Abstract

On account of the Bolivia v. Chile case before the International Court of Justice (ICJ), this Article examines the role of international judicial bodies in an era where the concept of sovereignty is under transformation in the context of the case of Bolivia v. Chile before the ICJ. This Article maps this transformation, examining how it is depicted in international jurisprudence in general and in the case of Bolivia’s application in particular. Arguing that Bolivia’s request should be adjudicated by the International Court on the basis of a sovereignty concept which results from a synthesis of the old doctrine with its new developments, this Article further argues how this new transformed sovereignty model can be useful also to other cases of international dispute resolution.
