Law Without Nations
ISBN: 9780804771696 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

At the same time, law divorced from nations would clear the ground for a cosmopolitan vision in which the prejudices or idiosyncrasies of distinctive national traditions would give way to more universalist groundings for law. These alternately dystopian and utopian viewpoints inspire this original collection of essays on law without nations. This book examines the ways in which the growing internationalization of law affects domestic national law, the relationship between...
