The Future of International Law

The book casts light on the early development, challenges, and philosophy of international law and the international jurisprudential process. It brings together foreign, comparative, and international legislative ideas from 1600–1926. It quotes and contains works of some of the great legal theorists, including Gentili, Grotius, Selden, Zouche, Pufendorf, Bijnkershoek, Wolff, Vattel, Martens, Mackintosh, and Wheaton. Even today, almost a century after publication, many of the challenges remain. Therefore, the book is a great account of the history of international law and a reference for topical information.
