Offering a more accessible alternative to casebooks and historical commentaries,
explains issues of international law by tracing the field＊s development and stressing key principles, processes, and landmark cases.
This comprehensive text eliminates the need for multiple books by combining discussions of theory and state practice with excerpts from landmark cases. The book has been updated in light of the continuing revolution in communication technology; the dense web of linkages between countries that involve individuals and bodies both formal and informal; and important and controversial areas such as human rights, the environment, and issues associated with the use of force.
Renowned for its rigorous approach and clear explanations,
remains the gold standard for undergraduate introductions to international law.
