The expertise of the teachers, and their understanding of the subject matter, is what made the class a real treat to be in. My understanding of the topic grew, and greatly matured along with the complexity of the subject matter, and I'm in debt to the course staff, and professors who provided the articles, and toolkit needed to further my understanding. As of late my entreaties to be nominated to the Hague Court, as an associate justice, to my countries leadership, in the United States of America, have been replied to via e-mail, and I too look forward to the day that we as Americans can work together an order to bring a more prosperous country to fruition. Thank You.

One of the course's strengths is its interactive nature. The instructors use real-life case studies and simulations to engage learners in the practical application of international law. The course also provides opportunities for learners to collaborate with each other, which helps to foster a sense of community among the participants. The course is well-structured, and the content is presented in a clear and concise manner. The instructors are knowledgeable and approachable, and they provide valuable feedback to learners on their assignments. The course materials, including readings, videos, and quizzes, are well-organized and easy to access.

It was helpful for me who does not have any basic and general idea of international law and international courts in the world. One of the decent points in this course is that there are several legal cases introduced to the class takers with simple descriptions. It would be not enough to understand whole process of the cases one by one because the running time of the each video is not that long. In this place, it would be better to give more information regarding legal terminologies under the video. Thank you so much to provide such a great course to everyone for free.

The fact that knowledgeable people have put together such a programme is a very high score. Secondly the rate and pace at which the videos and lecture notes have put together and presented is a high score. The supplementary readers, some of which can be downloaded and studied at oe's own pace is very laudable. The end of week test is well structured and no matter how you might have read and viewed the videos, one still need some time to grasp everything. The end of course examinations recieve very high score from me

This course is getting really interesting. It´s my first one on this page and the videos and readings are really good and helpfull. They explain in an easy way all the concepts. The readings of the creation of the international courts and the evolution of some of them reflected on conferences are really interesting. This course is perfect for law students that are curious or want to learn more about international courts. Well done and thank you!

The course was extremely helpful to understand the rationale behind the creation of international courts and tribunals. I really enjoyed the interplay between history, the evolution of international law and the examples of different cases brought before the courts.

This course was well-paced, interesting, and highly informative for someone who is new to international law and the roles of international courts. I recommend this class to folks who are looking to learn more about the different international courts, their roles, their challenges, and the rough outline of important elements of the progression of international law in the past century or so.

The Course is extremely well designed for beginners to the field of international law. More video lectures were definitely a plus with a lot of cases to keep them interesting! Even the reading material suggested in the course is very informative and easy to understand! Questions in between the video lectures assured us that we are understanding correctly! Highly recommend this course.

Excellent course. Instructors are design this course very efficiently. One has not to review course materials for the second time & before giving "Final examination", if a little attention paid at the first occasion. Thank you very much Coursera & University of Leiden. Looking forward to do more law courses with you. Thanks again.

As a student of Criminal Justice and Law in the US, this course was very different from my other work. I found it very interesting and learned a great deal about how law and legal issues are handled around the world. The instructors did a great job, the course was well put together. Thanks for a new and exciting experience.

Great Course! I would love to take a specialization of international law, sort of like a Master of International Law certificate (MILC) rather than a LLM which is an official degree title from many universities. International Law in Action should be the first two course needed to complete the International Law Specialization.

Great course. It is well structured, comprehensive, the lecturers are very clear and the interviews with members of the respective courts are very interesting (it's great to have an inside look!) If you're interested in the topic you won't be disappointed.
