It finds that public international law has become increasingly dysfunctional in dealing with some of the primary problems facing the world community, such as the maintenance of international peace and security, violations of international human rights and the law of armed conflict, arms control, disarmament and non-proliferation, and international environmental issues, and that international law and international institutions face a problematic future. It concludes, however, that all is not lost. There are possible alternative futures for international law and legal process, but choosing among them will require the world community making hard choices.International lawInternational law.341Murphy John Francis1937-248492MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828463203321The evolving dimensions of international law3957572UNINA
