Distinguish the difference between centralized and decentralized enforcement in international law.
There are two forms of enforcement in international law: decentralized and centralized. Decentralized enforcement is the most common as it has states take the issue upon themselves either unilaterally or multilaterally by a region. Alternatively, centralized enforcement is the less common option in which states involve the UN for enforcement. Centralized enforcement can be targeted against states, state institutions, non-state entities such as, corporations or terrorist organizations, and individuals on a public or private basis.
