Abstract

One of the main problems of international law and, accordingly, the international legal order that develops on its basis is the problem of gaps. It is especially clearly manifested in relatively new areas of interstate relations, in which there is a general lack of international treaties, in particular, in the fields of scientific, technical and social relations (digital, telecommunications, energy, environmental spheres, genetic engineering, artificial materials, automation of production based on electronics, creation of artificial intelligence, etc.). Gaps in international legal regulation should be considered insufficiency (absence) certain norms of international law, incompleteness and/or ambiguity of such norms. Today, the problem of gaps in international law is exacerbated by the transformation of the entire international system. There is an obvious connection between the presence, volume of gaps and the state of law and order. Filling gaps is a necessary component of the development of international law and the global regulatory system.
