The fundamental problem electrodynamics hopes to solve is this (Fig. 2.1): We have some electric charges, (call them source charges); what force do they exert on another charge, (call it the test charge)? The positions of the source charges are given (as functions of time); the trajectory of the test particle is to be calculated.

This chapter discusses how international courts operate, and how their jurisdiction is dependent on consent of states. It goes systematically through notions of jurisdiction, admissibility, interim measures, and compensation, ending with a discussion of advisory opinions and the possibilities for judicial review
Remember the basic problem of classical electrodynamics: we have a collection of charges (the “source” charges), and we want to calculate the force they exert on some other charge (the “test” charge – Fig. 2.1). According to the principle of superposition, it is sufficient to find the force of a single source charge – the total is then the vector sum of all the individual forces.
