ISBN: 9780521694209 / Angielski / Miękka / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780521781787 / Angielski / Twarda / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When does international law give a group the right to choose its sovereignty?

Her analysis also reveals that key cases have grappled with this problem of diversity. Challenges by marginalized groups to the culture or gender biases of international law emerge as integral to the cases, as do attempts to meet these challenges.
