Description: This book presents policymakers and scholars with an over-arching analytical model of international law, one that demonstrates the potential of international law, but also explains how policymakers should choose among different international legal structures.
Brief description: Joel P. Trachtman is Professor of International Law, The Fletcher School, Tufts University.
Review Quotes: The Economic Structure of International Law is an elegantly and clearly argued contribution to the burgeoning literature connecting social science and international law. Trachtman has a true gift of demystifying jargon and explaining complicated concepts in ways that will be valuable for legal scholars and law students alike.--Anne-Marie Slaughter, Dean, Woodrow Wilson School of Public Affairs, Princeton University
