    Reviews & endorsements

    'The edited volume musters an impressive array of some of international law's most prominent scholars and offers valuable food for thought for addressing today's manifold delicate challenges … The UN Friendly Relations Declaration at 50 achieves [the] goal of moving away from specialism and taking a more generalist perspective formidably. Such a perspective shift is indeed much needed and the lucid analyses of the fundamental principles of the international legal order are certain to make very meaningful contributions to international legal scholarship.' Benedikt Behlert, Die Friedens-Warte

    'All the essays are erudite and supported by a wealth of original source material. This book will be a valuable resource for those interested in international law and international organization.' S. R. Silverburg, Choice
