According to Encarta Encyclopedia, "International Law is principles, rules, and standards that govern nations and other participants in international affairs in their relations with one another. In other words, International law is the law of the international community."  Following are some of the definitions of international law by different jurists.

According to Oppenheim, "International national law is the name for the body of customary and conventional rules, which are considered legally binding by civilized states in their intercourse with one another."

Fenwick says, "It is the body of rules accepted by the general community of nations, as defining their rights and the means of procedure by, which those rights may be protected or violations of them redressed."

Briefly defines it as, "It is the body of rules and principles of action, which are binding upon civilized states in their relations with one another."

To me international law is, "The rules regulating international relations."

According to Subimal Mukerjee (Indian), "It is a law for equitable and just regulation of international relations within world community."

According to J.G. Starke, "It is that body of law, which states feel themselves bound to observe and therefore do commonly observe in then relations with each other and, which includes also:

The rules of law relating to the functioning of international institutions or organizations, their relations with each other and their relations with states and individuals.

Certain rules of law relating to individuals and. non-state entities so far as the rights and duties of such individuals and non-state entities are the concern of international community.

Simply International law means a body of generally accepted principles and rules controlling the conduct of national states, non-state entities, international organizations, individuals and corporations.
