This unique volume examines the opportunities for, and initiates work in, interdisciplinary research between the fields of inteational law and inteational relations, disciplines that have engaged little with one another since the Second World War. Written by leading experts in the fields of inteational law and inteational relations, it argues that such interdisciplinary research is central to the creation of a knowledge base among IR scholars and lawyers for the effective analysis and goveance of macro and micro phenomena. Inteational law is at the heart of inteational relations, but due to challenges of codification and enforceability, its apparent impact has been predominantly limited to commercial and civil arrangements. Inteational lawyers have been saying for years that 'law matters' in inteational affairs and now current events are proving them right. "Inteational Law and Inteational Relations" makes a powerful contribution to the theory and practice of global security by initiating a research agenda, building an empirical base, and offering a multidisciplinary approach designed to provide concrete answers to real-world problems of goveance. This book will be of great interest to all students of inteational law, inteational relations and goveance.
