Book Description

What is inteational law, and how does it work? This book argues that our answers to these fundamental questions are shaped by a variety of social cognition and knowledge production processes. These processes act as invisible frames, through which we understand inteational law. To better conceive the frames within which inteational law moves and performs, we must understand how psychological and socio-cultural factors affect decision-making in an inteational legal process. This includes identifying the groups of people and institutions that shape and alter the prevailing discourse in inteational law, and unearthing the hidden meaning of the various mythologies that populate and influence our normative world. With chapters from leading experts in the discipline, employing insights from sociology, psychology, and behavioural science, this book investigates the mechanisms that allow us to apprehend and intellectually represent the social practice of inteational law. It unveils the hidden or unnoticed processes by which our understanding of inteational law is formed, and helps readers to unlea some of the presuppositions that inform our largely unquestioned beliefs about inteational law.

About the Author

Review The encounter and the confrontation that lie at the core of the book -or, if you prefer, the invisible frames that tie together these contributions by these inteational lawyers- constitute one of the most fascinating aspects of the book’s hydrography. ― Tommaso Soave, The American Joual of Inteational Law
