After Louis XIV?s decease, European international relations were dominated by the collaboration between James Stanhope and Guillaume Dubois. Their alliance focused on the amendment and enlargement of the peace treaties of Utrecht, Rastatt and Baden. In-depth analysis of vast archival material uncovers the practical legal arguments used between Hampton Court and Versailles. ?Balance of Power? or ?Tranquillity of Europe? were in fact metaphors for the predominance of treaty law even over the most fundamental municipal norms. An implacable logic of norm hierarchy allowed to consolidate peace in Europe. 410 0$aLegal history library ;$tVolume 17. 410 0$aLegal history library.$pStudies in the history of international law ;$vVolume 7. 606 $aInternational law$zEurope$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aBalance of power$zEurope$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aEurope$xForeign relations$y18th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xForeign relations$y18th century 615 0$aInternational law$xHistory 615 0$aBalance of power$xHistory 676 $a341.3/709409033 700 $aDhondt$b Frederik$f1984-$0786045 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815283003321 996 $aBalance of power and norm hierarchy$91750157 997 $aUNINA
