International Law 4 Revised edition

International law is constantly adapting in response to developments in State practice, new treaties and an expanding international jurisprudence. International Law: Cases and Materials with Australian Perspectives provides students with up-to-date coverage of changing laws and their practical applications through a uniquely Australian lens. The fourth edition re-examines the principles and application of international law following major world events including the COVID-19 pandemic, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ongoing Israel–Palestine conflict. The student-friendly text has been thoroughly updated to reflect landmark cases and developments in the law resulting from these events, as well as the ongoing challenges of climate change, crimes against humanity, genocide, human rights abuses, nuclear proliferation, resource management, self-determination of peoples, and new treaties dealing with the high seas. Each chapter includes suggested further readings to encourage independent study. Written by an expert author team, International Law remains an essential resource for Australian law students.
