Description

This title decodes the often complicated ways that international law operates within the US legal system and sheds light on unresolved issues and areas of controversy. It covers all of the principal forms of international law including treaties, decisions and orders of international institutions, customary international law, jus cogens norms, and general principles. It also explores a number of issues that are implicated by the intersection of US law and international law, such as foreign sovereign immunity, international human rights litigation, extradition, and extraterritoriality.
