International law. Juridical form. CoercionAbstract
This article aims to establish a materialist theory of international law on a pashukanian basis. For that, it explores the tension in the text of the Soviet author about coercion position in defining the legal form. The sustained hypothesis is that violence is one of its basic components, which would open space for an intersection with decisionist theories and the configuration of relations between states as being juridical.
