Critical Acclaim
‘Curt Bradley has collected some of the most influential scholarship, representing diverse perspectives, on US foreign relations law. The compilation should both remind experts of old classics and give newcomers a thoughtfully curated introduction to the doctrines, theories, and debates that define this area of US law. It is a very welcome addition to the scene, by one of the field''s leading lights.’
