Public International Law offers a comprehensive understanding of
international law as well as a fresh and highly accessible
approach. While explaining the theory and development of
international law, this work also examines how it functions in
practice. Case studies and recent examples are infused in the
discussion on each topic, and critical perspectives on the
principles are given prominence, building an understanding of how
and why the international legal system operates in the way it does
and where it is heading. The book explains the theoretical
foundations for each principle in detail before illustrating how
these principles function in practice. Features include: - a focus
on fundamental principles of international law rather than
specialist sub-topics - integrated and contextual explanation of
the political and extra-legal dimensions of the international legal
system - principles of international law placed within a
contemporary real-life context - traditional and contemporary case
studies explained in the context of legal principles - uniform
structure to facilitate understanding. With insight founded on the
author's many years of experience as a practitioner and academic in
the field of international law, this work will offer legal
practitioners, policy makers and students, both undergraduate and
postgraduate, an invaluable insight into the field of international
law.
