Recenzje

'Only on the basis of a legal foundation can BRICS continue its evolution towards an ever-more cooperative, interrelated, and ultimately maybe even integrated community of states. Pointing this out most clearly and providing illuminating and inspiring insight into the complexities of the BRICS realities, the book provides an invaluable resource and reference for scholars, practitioners, and anybody interested in international and global governance - under a political, an economic, and most importantly: a legal perspective.' Tim W. Dornis, European Review of Private Law
