The book examines the sources, processes and doctrines of international legal obligation in antiquity to re-evaluate the critical attributes of international law. David J. Bederman focuses on three essential areas in which law influenced ancient state relations - diplomacy, treaty-making and warfare - in a detailed analysis of international relations in the Near East (2800-700 BCE), the Greek city-states (500-338 BCE) and Rome (358-168 BCE). Containing topical literature and archaeological evidence, this 2001 study does not merely catalogue instances of recognition by ancient states of these seminal features of international law: it accounts for recurrent patterns of thinking and practice. This comprehensive analysis of international law and state relations in ancient times provides a fascinating study for lawyers and academics, ancient historians and classicists alike. 410 0$aCambridge studies in international and comparative law (Cambridge, England : 1996) ;$v16. 606 $aInternational law$xHistory 615 0$aInternational law$xHistory. 676 $a341/.09 700 $aBederman$b David J.$0261840 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780064903321 996 $aInternational law in antiquity$9704948 997 $aUNINA
