Description
Non-state law is playing an increasing role in both public and private ordering. Numerous organisations have emerged alongside the nation-state, each purporting to provide their members with rules and norms to govern their conduct and organise their affairs.
The nation-state increasingly finds itself sandwiched between two broad and contrasting categories of non-state law. The firstβlaw above the stateβcaptures legal systems that function across the territorial borders of nation-states. The second categoryβlaw below the stateβincludes forms of local customary, religious, and indigenous law.
As these forms of non-state law persist and proliferate alongside the nation-state, the relationship between state and non-state law becomes more complex, multifaceted, and tense. Negotiating State and Non-State Law addresses this relationship, considering whether and to what extent state and non-state law can coexist and how each form of law seeks to influence as well as transform the other.

The Nature of International Law
Jurisprudence has up until recently largely neglected international law as a subject of philosophizing. The Nature of International Law tries to offset against this deficiency by providing a comprehensive explanatory account of international law. It does so within an analytical tradition, albeit within the one which departs from the nowadays dominant method of the metaphysically-driven conceptual analysis. Instead, it adopts...Paperback$12200Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 2-3 weeks
