Jus inter gentes

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Jus inter gentes, is the body of

Law of Nations.[1] Jus inter gentes, literally, means "law between the peoples".[2]

This is not the same as jus gentium, argues Francisco Martin and his co-authors in "International Human Rights and Humanitarian Law" (2006),[3] because jus inter gentes includes internationally recognized human rights.
