Abstract
AbstractWhat fosters the effectiveness of Transnational Commodity Law (TCL) is to render the sustainable use principle as effective as possible. For that purpose, we shall first turn to some reflections on how the normative potential of sustainable development (SD) as a legal concept can be unfolded (Sect. 5.1). Secondly, we will turn to International Commodity Agreements (ICAs) as potential instruments codifying what sustainable commodity use requires (Sect. 5.2).
