An Introduction to Contemporary International Law: A
Policy-Oriented Perspective introduces the reader to all major
aspects of contemporary international law. It applies the highly
acclaimed approach developed by the New Haven School of
International Law, viewing international law as an ongoing process
of decision-making through which the members of the world community
identify, clarify, and secure their common interests. Unlike
conventional works in international law, this work is organized and
structured in terms of the process of decision making in the
international arena, and references both classic historical
examples and contemporary events to illustrate international legal
processes and principles. Using contemporary examples, this Third
Edition builds on previous editions by contextualizing and
dramatizing these changes with reference to seven features that
characterize the New Haven School approach to international law:
participants, perspectives, arenas of decision, bases of power,
strategies, outcomes, and effects. This new edition highlights the
major developments in international law since 2000, including the
right to self-determination, the expanding scope of international
concern and the duty of states to protect human rights, the trend
towards greater accountability for states and individual
decision-makers under international law, and the vital role
individual responsibility plays in the emerging field of
international criminal law. It provides a new generation of
students with the interest and the intellectual tools needed to
participate as responsible members of a world community premised on
the notion of human dignity for all people.
