| Summary: | "This book is a comprehensive analysis of the relevance of international law to the conduct of international relations and foreign policy. Written by an international lawyer and academic, this book contains a systematic treatment of both fields of study. The work serves as an introduction to contemporary theories of international relations and as a primer on international law, especially for the nonlawyer. Focusing on contemporary problems of terrorism, nuclear nonproliferation, war and peace, economic development, protection of the global environment, reform of the United Nations, democracy, and protection of human rights, this work develops the thesis that international law is a neglected tool of foreign policy that can be used to address many of today's difficult and unresolved problems. It concludes by advocating a new global order in the form of the rule of law and multilateral solidarity in addressing world problems."--Jacket. |
