  "abstract": "Chapter 5 of 20 — part of a research treatise in public international law by S.S.Bukhari (The Scholarly Nexus, October 2026), examining ICJ jurisdiction and procedure, expropriation and investment protection, targeted sanctions, the law of the sea, refugee protection, and the formation of customary international law.\n\nEvery judgment on preliminary objections performs two operations at once: it opens a door and it declines, for the moment, to walk through it. This article examines what the Court may decide at the jurisdictional stage, what it must defer, and what it may never do there.",
