Keywords:
Effectiveness of negotiation strategies, international law, non-Muslim states, Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, international oversight modelsAbstract
Evaluating the effectiveness of negotiation strategies with non-Muslim countries in the field of international law requires the application of diverse theoretical frameworks that enable an in-depth analysis of the dynamics governing international relations and negotiation processes. These analytical frameworks are essential for understanding the complex interplay of national interests, cultural values, and power relations among states. The present study focuses on examining oversight mechanisms in international law that ensure the effectiveness of negotiations between Muslim and non-Muslim states. Relying on a comparative-analytical research method, this study investigates the fundamental principles of public international law, the norms of treaty law, and obligations arising from membership in international organizations. In particular, it analyzes the central role of the Islamic International Court of Justice—as a proposed institution within the framework of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation—in institutionalizing supervision over negotiation processes. Furthermore, through a comparative analysis of oversight mechanisms in prominent regional organizations such as the European Union and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, this study seeks to explain how international supervision can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of negotiations with non-Muslim states.
