Peace is an elusive concept, especially within the field of
international law, varying according to historical era and between
Research Handbook responds to the gap created by the neglect of
peace in international law scholarship. Explaining the normative
evolution of peace from the principles of peaceful co-existence to
the UN declaration on the right to peace, this Research Handbook
calls for the fortification of international institutions to
facilitate the pursuit of sustainable peace as a public good. It
sets forth a new agenda for research that invites scholars from a
broad array of disciplines and fields of law to analyse the
contribution of international institutions to the construction and
implementation of sustainable peace. With its critical examination
of courts, transitional justice institutions, dispute resolution
and fact-finding mechanisms, this Research Handbook goes beyond the
traditional focus on post-conflict resolution, and includes areas
not usually found in analyses of peace such as investment and trade
law. Bringing together contributions from leading researchers in
the field of international law and peace, this Research Handbook
analyses peace in the context of law applicable to women, refugees,
environmentalism, sustainable development, disarmament, and other
key contemporary issues. This thoughtful Research Handbook will be
a crucial tool for policymakers, practitioners, and academics in
the fields of international law, human rights, jus post bellum, and
development. Its comprehensive insights to the field will also be
of benefit for students of political science, law, and peace
studies. Contributors: B.A. Andreassen, C.M. Bailliet, D. Behn, K.
