International Law in Antiquity

Zusammenfassung This 2001 study of the origins of international law contains topical literature and archaeological evidence. David J. Bederman examines three critical areas in which law influenced ancient state relations - diplomacy, treaty-making and warfare - in the Near East (2800-700 BCE), the Greek city-states (500-338 BCE) and Rome (358-168 BCE).
