International law, at least that contained in treaties, is not actual law. Depending on where you're from, it may have a different position in the hierarchy of norms though (i.e. the 'ranking' of the law). Also, international law is generally much more difficult to enforce than national law. Finally, the application of international law is often very much dependent on the political climate. For instance, whether a UN security council resolution has any practical effect on a country upon which sanctions are imposed depends entirely on whether the members of the UN are willing to actively impose them.

How HLA HART in the concept of law questions whether international law is really a law because it has few rules regarding how international law can be made or changed?
H.L.A Hart, in the "Concept of Law", questions whether international law is really law because it has few rules regarding how international law can be made or changed. This weakness is illustrated in part by the uncertainty surrounding how a customary rule of international law emerges and then when that rule has changed. Not only it is difficult to identify customary rules but, as with other rules of international law, and as opposed to national laws, there are also few mechanisms to enforce and make states obey them. Critically discuss the above propositions.
