Sandholtz Wayne, Whytock Christopher (eds.) Research Handbook on the Politics of International Law

Edward Elgar Publishing, 2017. — 590 p.What is the relationship between politics and international law? Inspired by comparative politics and socio-legal studies, this Research Handbook develops a novel framework for comparative analysis of politics and international law at different stages of governance and in different governance systems. It applies the framework in a wide range of fields--from human rights and environmental standards, to cyber conflict and intellectual property--to show how the relationship between politics and international law varies depending on the sites where it unfolds.
