Abstract

International law is fundamental to the regulation of foreign private investment in Cameroon. Through its authority, it has a significant impact on the domestic framework for foreign private investment. The intrusion of international norms limits the autonomy of domestic law in this respect. These standards are essentially legally binding, enabling them to act on internal ones. Where international norms are not prima facie binding, they may be coercive in the domestic order through certain mechanisms. It thus becomes logical that the direct effect and primacy of international law over Cameroon’s regulation of foreign private investment can be derived from the authority of international norms.
