Power, politics, law : international law and state behaviour during international crises / by Radhika Withana. - Leiden ; Boston : Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, 2008. - 1 online resource ([vii], 287 pages)
Includes bibliographical references (pages 255-283) and index.
The relationship between international law and state behaviour in international crises involving the threat or use of force -- An alternative theoretical approach for understanding the relationship between international law and state behaviour during international crises : international law as ideology -- The place of international law in state behaviour during the Korean War --The place of international law in British and American foreign policy behaviour during the Suez crisis -- The place of international law in state behaviour.
Hypothesises that an ILI perspective offers a better explanation of the law-State behaviour relationship during international crises than rival explanations grounded in positivism, realism or functionalism. This work includes four case studies of State behaviour including the US, the Soviet Union and the PRC during the Korean War (1950-1953).
