Cloth. $95. * The authors argue that the war has effectively ended the existing system of international law, a system that was already in decline due to the growing economic and political interdependence of states. These changes have created a new set of problems that will provide the basis of international law when the war ends. In addition to supplying an intellectual framework for this new system, Baty and Morgan address practical topics like international arbitration and more abstract issues like clash between nationalism and cosmopolitanism.
