520 _a"How does international law impact the behavior of states? This book designed for students in multiple disciplines offers a comprehensive, accessible introduction to the "law of nations," detailing the evolution of state practice in response to an ever-changing, diverse world. In this new edition of William Slomanson's foundational text, the new authors, Professors Slagter and Van Doorn, trace how states manage their sovereignty in myriad ways, working through treaties, international organizations, and international courts to secure their own as well as global interests. With special emphasis on five key areas - human rights, the use of force, human security and humanitarian intervention, environmental protection, and economic relations - the authors illustrate both the power and limits of international law to provide structure and predictability on a globalized planet. Real-world problem sets, annotated bibliographies, and a practical guide to studying international law make this a text that students and instructors alike will appreciate"--
