About this title

Synopsis

Among the significant consequences of the Cold War’s end has been the rise of nations and the challenges that these nations pose for global order and international law. Taking a unique approach to explore this phenomenon, Beck and Ambrosio consider three principal themes: the emergence of nations, the international legal challenges that such nations pose, and international legal efforts to accommodate nations within the global state system. Students of international law, political science, and ethnic studies will find this book useful for its focus on an overlooked, but important, subject.
