Description:
In the wake of September 11th and the wars on Afghanistan and Iraq, an understanding of International Law has never been so important. This comprehensive and informative text has been restructured and brought fully up-to-date, in order to explain International Law as it stands at the beginning of the twenty first century. The basic principles and history of public International Law are first considered before each of the principle subject areas are examined. Alongside the key areas of study more specific topics are also covered including: air and space law; International environmental law; Nature and history of international law; Law of the sea; International economic law; and Law of armed conflict. Each chapter considers the economic, social and cultural factors that have influenced the development of the subject, and concludes with an evaluation of relevant judgments of international courts and tribunals. As one of the most comprehensive books available, 'International Law', will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students of International Law and provides an extensive reference work for those studying international relations and political science.
