Abstract
Drawing on theories from international relations and international law, this article explores the interactions of three design features of international agreements: legality, depth of cooperation, and monitoring/enforcement systems. An understanding of the trade-offs between these features, and of the influence of domestic actors and institutions on treaty making, deepens our perception of agreement dynamics and can contribute to the design of more effective and robust international accords.
