Can we understand the professional trajectories of international legal elites as the reflection of different legal cultures, in which different factions organize and confront each other? The prosopography of the judges of the International Court of Justice highlights the construction of a weakly autonomous field of international law, structured by several professional divisions. While some professional groups within certain cultural configurations have privileged access to the Court, the variations in the judges’ profiles according to geographical origins can be explained first by a cross-history of the national and international fields of international law.
