The main objective of this paper is not to analyse the problem of International Law as a legal tool but it seeks to raise the question of International Law as a science, as well as focus specially on the Sociology of International Law of which one of its most integral components, as a special discipline is status nascendi. Other elements of the Science of International Law are: International Law Theory, International Law Dogma and International Law History. In addition, International Relations Sociology also has its own set of components such as theory, dogma, methodology and history and it is based primarily on Sociology, Sociology of Law and the International Relations Theories. Political Rules are one of the most important elements of International Law; on the other hand, however, one of the key functions of the Sociology of International Law is the defence of the Science of International Law with respect to its intentions to discard the theories of political scientists from the United States (International Relations Theory). In addition, it tackles certain tendencies related to rejected judicial positivism. The sociology of International Relations is an adequate scientific response to certain destructive nihilistic positions that have taken root in certain important theories of International Relations Theory with respect to the role of International Relations.
