Recognition in International Law, Paperback / softback Book

Recognition in International Law Paperback / softback

Part of the Grotius Classic Reprint Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Originally published by Hersch Lauterpacht in 1947, this book presents a detailed study of recognition in international law, examining its crucial significance in relation to statehood, governments and belligerency.

The author develops a strong argument for positioning recognition within the context of international law, reacting against the widely accepted conception of it as an area of international politics.

Numerous examples of the use of law and conscious adherence to legal principle in the practice of states are used to give weight to this perspective.

This paperback re-issue in 2012 includes a newly commissioned Foreword by James Crawford, Whewell Professor of International Law at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Jesus College, Cambridge.
