Yet, despite the best efforts of international institutions, scholars and others to assert the universal application of international law, its relevance and applicability has been influenced, if not directed, by political power. At present, the international system appears to be moving towards multipolarity, with various sites of power competing to exert influence in the world today. The ascent of China and India and the "decline of the West" all pose challenges for international law and institutions. With contributors from a variety of countries providing perspectives from the disciplines of international law and international relations theory, International Law in a Multipolar World addresses the implications that multipolarity poses for the international legal system. The book features contributions addressing some of the questions multipolarity poses for the international legal system. The contributions to this volume from a range of contributors including Nigel White, Michael Schmitt, Richard Burchill, Alexander Orakhelashvili and Christian Pippan, explore issues such as the use of force, governance, sovereign equality, regionalism and the relevance of the United Nations in a multipolar world, while considering the overarching theme of the relationship between power and law. International Law in a Multipolar World is of particular interest to academics and students of public international law, international relations theory and international politics"-- Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a International law $v Congresses. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008124029 650 0 $a International organization $v Congresses. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008104834 700 1 $a Happold, Matthew. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr2004011490 710 2 $a International Law Association. $b British Branch. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50060243 830 0 $a Routledge research in international law. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2009200591 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117015510.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BDF71BE8E55411E7AFB0C42A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
