Klappentext
Politics and law appear deeply entwined in contemporary international relations. Existing theories struggle to comprehend the relationship between these aspects of international life. In this volume, leading scholars advance a new perspective on the politics of international law. They rethink the nature of politics and show how modern politics has conditioned the nature of international law. This new perspective is illustrated through case-studies of the use of force, climate change, landmines, migrant rights, the International Criminal Court, the Kosovo bombing campaign, international financial institutions, and global governance.
