Reviews

This book has been a pleasure to read. Not only does it deal with a very topical and complex issue of growing importance in international law, but it does so with enormous rigour and originality. Valentina Vadi's breadth of knowledge is impressive, but she is able to convey this knowledge very clearly, making her book eminently accessible to non-specialists. I have enjoyed her analysis tremendously. Professor Amandine Garde, University of Liverpool
