Politics and law appear deeply entwined in contemporary
international relations. Yet existing perspectives struggle to
understand the complex interplay between these aspects of
international life. In this path-breaking volume, a group of
leading international relations scholars and legal theorists
advance a new constructivist perspective on the politics of
international law. They reconceive politics as a field of human
action that stands at the intersection of issues of identity,
purpose, ethics, and strategy, and define law as an historically
contingent institutional expression of such politics. They explain
how liberal politics has conditioned modern international law and
how law 'feeds back' to constitute international relations and
world politics. This new perspective on the politics of
international law is illustrated through detailed case-studies of
the use of force, climate change, landmines, migrant rights, the
International Criminal Court, the Kosovo bombing campaign,
international financial institutions, and global governance.
