Most Interesting 2020: d’Aspremont & Singh eds., Concepts for International Law – Contributions to Disciplinary Thought

Published in 2019, but the paperback edition came out in 2020, so on a technicality I'll allow it. (It doesn't hurt that I have a chapter in this volume.) The second in our series "Most Interesting 2020":

Jean d’Aspremont & Sahib Singh eds., Concepts for International Law – Contributions to Disciplinary Thought (Edward Elgar Publishing 2019)

Although Concepts for International Law was initially released as a hardback in 2019, the paperback has been released in 2020 and for the people who desire a physical copy to peruse, 50£ is more financially acceptable than 250£, so I think it deserve a mention. It is one of the most useful edited books on international law I have ever read, containing an inexhaustible treasure of insights on prominent concepts used in international law. It can be a daunting task for new researchers to familiarize themselves with the countless concepts being thrown around by established scholars in international legal academia. This book helps with that task. It will undoubtably become a starting point for many theses in the days to come.
