Opinio Juris Book Discussion: Andrew Guzman, "How International Law Works"
http://www.opiniojuris.org/posts/1202425542.shtml


   The fun continues at Opinio Juris next week, February 11-14, as we
   host an online discussion of Professor Andrew Guzman's book, How
   International Law Works, which has just been published by Oxford
   University Press. [1]Professor Guzman teaches at UC-Berkeley, Boalt
   Hall School of Law, where he directs the International Legal Studies
   Program. Guzman is a prolific [2]scholar and this book makes an
   important contribution to international law theory by deploying the
   tools of rational choice to explain how and why international law
   affects the behavior of states. Professor Guzman will post an
   introduction to his claims in the book on Monday, to be followed by
   commentary by [3]Jeff Dunoff (Temple), [4]Kal Raustiala (UCLA) and
   [5]Alex Geisinger (Drexel). Some of the OJ regulars will be joining in
   the discussion. We welcome comments from our readers as well.
   If you would like to order a copy of the book, you can do so [6]here
   at the OUP website (keeping in mind that ASIL members get a
   discount!).
