Abstract
The making of international law has passed through the various dynamic stages of international relations. International Customs as the foremost source of international law and sometime regarded as meta-laws, have been under consistent debate. Some legal scholars are stringent not to disturb customary international law (CIL) as possessing the status of meta-laws which ultimately leads to the very logic of static nature of CIL. However, in the process of codification, negotiation for international treaties has become an overwhelming phenomenon and some scholars have argued not to rely much on CIL. Therefore, an argument can be established that international customs are in phase of constant negotiation and readjustment which is contrary to classical nature of international law and these CIL can be termed as “negotiated customary international law.”
