"Nico Krisch and Ezgi Yildiz have produced the rare volume that both opens new space for analytic inquiry and offers sharp insights for navigating it. The volume should-and, I think, will-have a lasting impact on how many international legal and policy experts approach the field." -- Monica Hakimi, Columbia Law School"This superb volume breaks new interdisciplinary ground. Nico Krisch and Ezgi Yildiz see international law as a dynamic field, caught between forces that promote stability and inertia and forces that push towards major as well as smaller but nevertheless consequential changes. Together with an all-star team of international lawyers and political scientists, they massively extend the boundaries of our understanding of change in international law." -- Orfeo Fioretos, Department of Political Science, Temple University"How international law changes is now a question routinely asked. It is however rarely answered with the empirical breadth, conceptual creativity, and interdisciplinary rigor displayed in this volume. Krisch and Yildiz have gathered an impressive range of established scholars and rising stars, making The Many Paths of Change in International Law path-breaking indeed." -- Giovanni Mantilla, Department of Politics and International Studies, University of Cambridge"An eye-opening book on the vibrancy of contemporary international law. Nico Krisch and Ezgi Yildiz have wisely chosen to shed light on an insufficiently investigated topic, that of informal change occurring through a vast web of actors, processes, and strategies." -- Laurence Boisson de Chazournes, Faculty of Law, University of Geneva"Mapping the paths of change in international law requires both the boldness of an explorer and the precision of a surveyor. It requires both a readiness to push past well-rehearsed doctrines and a rigorous eye for detail and nuance. It might seem an impossible task. And yet, this book somehow exhibits both qualities. Stitching together the accounts of its insightful editors and authors, it is one of the best guides we have to the many and varied practices that we call international law." -- Harlan G. Cohen, University of Georgia School of Law"This book is a stimulating volume which should be read by policy experts and anyone wanting to understand change and its consequences in international law." -- Kevin McVeigh, Law Society Gazette "The book makes a ground-breaking contribution to international law, emphasizing that it is 'first and foremost an empirical question' as to which 'factors can determine the relevant pathways and account for the speed and success of change attempts in international law'. In addition, the book accounts for the law's own pace of change, inviting IR scholars to engage with the effects of political and societal agency on international law." -- Antje Wiener, International Affairs, "Nico Krisch and Ezgi Yildiz have produced the rare volume that both opens new space for analytic inquiry and offers sharp insights for navigating it.

It also provides a useful structure for understanding how and why these messyoutcomes emerge, by introducing pathways ofchange, which bring interactions between courts,expert bodies, private authorities, states, and other actors into view." -- Taylor St John, The American Journal of International Law, "Nico Krisch and Ezgi Yildiz have produced the rare volume that both opens new space for analytic inquiry and offers sharp insights for navigating it.

Synopsis
How does international law change? How does it adapt to meet global challenges in a volatile social and political context? The Many Paths of Change in International Law offers fresh, theoretically informed, and empirically rich answers to these questions. It traces drivers, conditions, and consequences of change across the different fields of international law and paints a complex and varied picture very much in contrast with the relatively static imagery prevalent in many accounts today. Drawing on inspirations from international law, international relations, sociology, and legal theory, this book explores how international law changes through means other than treaty-making. Highlighting the social dynamics through which different areas and institutional contexts have generated their own pathways, it presents a theoretical framework for tracing change processes and the conditions that affect their success. Based on this framework, each contribution illuminates the paths of change we observe in contemporary international law. The explorations centre on strategies, forms, forces, and social contexts and draw on primary source material and in-depth case studies. Overall, the volume offers a fascinating account of an international legal order in flux-with a dynamic not captured through traditional doctrinal lenses-and helps situate change processes and their varied implications in international law and politics. A relevant book for everyone wanting to understand change and its consequences in international law. This is an open access title.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
