The ‘turn to history’ and the year of the yearbook of international law

• This chapter concerns the relation between time, progression and history in international law. It places the yearbook in a broader context of the ‘turn to history’ in international legal scholarship, and asks how the ‘year’ figures as a placeholder of meaning and authority in international law and its’ narratives. Drawing on recent scholarly debates on narration in relation to international law and emerging technologies – especially artificial intelligence (AI) – the article calls for a book of international law that knows of no year, no history, no beginning and no perpetually postponed end.
