Recenzii
'This is an exceptionally valuable book. It combines an admirably clear and well written analysis of the theory and practice of international society with a rigorous examination and defence of the underlying philosophy on which it rests. The result is tough-minded liberal theory at its very best.' James Mayall, Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge
'Liberalism, assailed from all sides in the great political and legal debates of our time, is defended staunchly and deftly in this expansive and sensitive book. Charvet and Nay combine their talents to produce a meticulous account of a human rights order embedded in the political practice of liberalism.' Gerry Simpson, London School of Economics
'This book provides a sustained and comprehensive defence of liberal thought and practice in contemporary international affairs. It bridges the divide between the abstract work of political philosophers and the technical tomes of international lawyers ... Particularly impressive are the discussions of the standard criticisms that are made by contemporary opponents of liberal theory and practice' Mervyn Frost, King's College London
