Abstract

Public International Law is an exhaustive and meticulously researched book addressing the very foundations of the law and the role public international law institutions may play in resolving many of the world’s disputes, conflicts and crises. Worldwide, on any given day, international legal disputes, transnational conflicts, tensions at sea, trade negotiations and boundary disputes pose a range of questions under international law. In the current global economy, international law can no longer be the exclusive domain of lawyers. Corporate directors, international civil servants, foreign investment specialists, human rights advocates—even soldiers and military contractors—all demand some knowledge of international law. This is especially true for the hot-button topics of international law that impact not only states but also multinational corporations, international organizations, NGOs and individuals. These topics include the laws of war, corporate accountability for international crimes, trade and investment, environmental law, human rights, climate change, refugee and asylum issues and arms control. Given the ever-increasing likelihood that legal practitioners will have to tackle an actual or potential application of international law, an exhaustive guide to international law such as this volume is an essential component of every lawyer’s library.
