Customary international law is derived from the consistent practice of states over time combined with a belief that such practice is legally obligatory (opinio juris). It is formed when a general practice of states becomes accepted as a norm of international law, even in the absence of a specific treaty or convention. Customary international law evolves through state practice and can be found in the decisions of international courts and tribunals.
The rules that regulate the conduct of nations, established through treaties and customary practices, are called collectively International Law.

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.

International Law
Customary law
No. As many states have failed to ratify or even sign the treaty, the ICCPR remains just that, a treaty. Only when it is seen as a customary norm for states to adhere to will it become customary law, and only then may states derogate from its provisions through vocifierous objections. As it is now, states who are not a party to it do not need to object, they simply do not sign.
Many of its provisions are regarded as Customary International Law.
