The Gentle Civilizer of Nations: The Rise and Fall of International Law 1870–1960 - Hersch Lauterpacht Memorial Lectures
Koskenniemi, Martti (University of Helsinki)
International law was born from the impulse to 'civilize' late nineteenth-century attitudes towards race and society, argues Martti Koskenniemi in this study of the rise and fall of modern international law. This book combines legal analysis, historical and political critique and semi-biographical studies of key figures and institutions.
