Recenzje

'… this is an extremely interesting and worthwhile read for anyone seeking a better understanding of norm cycles and change within the international system … This book will be of particular interest to scholars whose research stands at the intersection of international relations and international law … this book has important implications for our current thinking on the subject and related issues of constituent power, legal autonomy, cosmopolitan democracy and the legitimation of global institutions.'
