Recenzje

'Nothing is more practical than a good theory! A wonderful choice of important approaches to international law, written by eminent scholars of our time. The chapters, each authoritative on its own account, are embedded in a highly informed and informing introduction by the editors and a dialogical epilogue by the authors with Joseph Weiler. The reflections on theory, method, and the 'big picture' of international law are highly welcome in the current period of challenge and change.' Anne Peters, Director, Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law
