Biographical note
Edited by Wayne Sandholtz, John A. McCone Chair in International Relations, University of Southern California and Christopher A. Whytock, Professor of Law and Political Science, University of California, Irvine, US<i>'Sandholtz and Whytock have put together an outstanding collection of essays on the intersection of international law and politics. Focusing on stages and systems of governance, the editors illuminate sites in the international order where legal norms have a direct impact on politics. The volume also looks to the ways in which law and politics change and evolve at the global level as a result of continuing contestation. A must-read for students of global law and politics.'</i>
- Anthony F. Lang, Jr, University of St Andrews, UK,
<i>'This next-generation volume both consolidates a range of recent insights and sets an agenda for the study of the politics of international law. Moving beyond simple binaries of domestic/international, law/politics, and binding/non-binding, the editors and authors collectively elucidate a wide range of phenomenon with a fresh perspective. The result is an essential starting point for international legal studies going forward.'</i>
- Tom Ginsburg, University of Chicago, US,
<i>'As the world becomes increasingly legalized, this </i>Research Handbook on the Politics of International Law<i> offers innovative guidance about how to understand law's politics and effects. Sandholtz and Whytock construct a rigorous yet supple theoretical foundation for an excellent array of both conceptual essays and case studies on topics ranging from finance and trade to cyberconflict and human rights. The Research Handbook is an important theoretical contribution for anyone interested in the intersection of law and politics, which these days includes most of us.'</i>
