John Murphy offers an insightful analysis of why the United States
does not always accept the rule of law in international affairs,
even though it has made immense contributions to its creation,
adoption, and implementation. Examining the reasons for this
failure, John Murphy analyses a number of cases, not to make a case
that the United States has been an international outlaw, but to
illustrate the wide-ranging difficulties standing in the way of US
adherence to the rule of law. He explains how the nature of the US
legal system and the idiosyncrasies of the international legal
process combine to compound problems for the United States, and he
explores several alternative scenarios for the position of the
United States vis-a-vis international law. This timely book offers
a much needed examination of US attitudes and practices and makes a
major contribution to the contemporary literature in international
law and international relations.
