This new edition of International Law Stories sets some of the most significant international law cases in their social, political, and historical contexts. The seventeen chapters―each focusing on a different controversy―and the editors’ four introductory reflections probe a range of timely questions: What is the efficacy of international law? How do international legal norms and processes intersect with national legal systems? What explains the enduring significance of some international law pronouncements? The stories are organized in four parts, about 1) the development of international human rights law, 2) regional international law, 3) the use of international law in the U.S. legal system, and 4) international law's impacts on interstate politics. International law scholars, teachers, students, and practitioners will all discover valuable new insights, and readers new to the field will find themselves quickly immersed in core international law controversies and developments.
The contributors to International Law Stories bring a wealth of experience and expertise to this project. They have worked as judges on international courts, legal advisors to governments, advocates before international and national courts, members of United Nations bodies, and academics.
