The League of Nations and the Development of International Law
This volume examines the contributions to International Law of individual members of the Advisory Committee of Jurists in the League of Nations, and the broader national and discursive legal traditions of which they were representative. It adopts a biographical approach that complements existing legal narratives. Pre-1914 visions of a liberal international order influenced the post-1919 world based on the rule of law in civilised nations. This volume focuses on leading legal personalities of this era. It discusses the scholarly work of the ACJ wise men, their biographical notes, and narrates their contribution as legal scholars and founding fathers of the sources of international law that cu...
Transforming the Politics of International Law
This volume examines the role of League of Nations committees, particularly the Advisory Committee of Jurists (ACJ) in shaping the statute of the Permanent Court of International Justice (PCIJ). The authors explore the contributions of individual jurists and unofficial members in shaping the League’s international legal machinery. It is a companion book to The League of Nations and the Development of International Law: A New Intellectual History of the Advisory Committee of Jurists (Routledge, 2021). One of the guiding principles of the book is that the development of international law was a project of politics where the idea and notion of an international society must contend with the pol...
Economic Sanctions Under International Law
"The effects of US secondary sanctions are broad and are often designed to cripple the target country's economy and currency. Some states have sought to circumvent these sanctions by setting up a special purpose vehicle to facilitate trade and financial transactions with the sanctioned country on humanitarian grounds. Although the nature of these special purpose vehicles is new and experimental, they are little understood, not least how they operate and function in international law. This volume addresses this gap by identifying and examining some of the legal issues that a special purpose vehicle such as the Instrument in Support of Trade Exchanges (INSTEX) generates. The collection brings together leading legal academics, sanctions practitioners and policy experts to provide an assessment of the special purpose vehicle in the context of secondary sanctions in international law. It will be of interest to researchers and academics in International law, Security law, Economic law and Comparative law"--
Intellectual Property and the Law of Nations, 1860-1920

Russian Discourses on International Law
A number of recent events in the last decade have renewed interest in Russian discourses on international law. This book evaluates and presents a contemporary analysis of Russian discourses on international law from various perspectives, including sociological, theoretical, political, and philosophical. The aim is to identify how Russia interacts with international law, the reasons behind such interactions, and how such interactions compare with the general practice of international law. It also examines whether legal culture and other phenomena can justify Russia’s interaction in international law. Russian Discourses on International Law explains Russia's interpretation of international l...
Working from Within

Transcriptions of five unpublished papers, letters, and notes are included in the appendix.
Private Intellectual Property Regulation in Public International Law
The aim of this article is to show how private rights, as understood within the context of intellectual property are no longer the domain of domestic regulation; rather, they are now within the purview of public international regulation. As such, private rights have now contributed to the “privatization” of public international law, where the interaction of applicable laws under domestic law shapes the interpretation and outcome of how public international law determines global economic relations. The article assesses the international regulatory domain of intellectual property rights under public international law instruments to show how intellectual property rights norms evolved as reg...

To What Extent Do Intellectual Property Rights Drive the Nature of Private International Law in the Era of Globalism?
The purpose of this article is to dissect the nature of intellectual property rights in the context of private international law. In other words, the primary focus is how private international law, i.e., conflict of laws, from the perspective of jurisdiction, applicable law, and enforcement rules have been developed and applied to intellectual property rights.
