"[An] important book....The particular merit of Franck's book is
that it moves away from the functionalist, strategic, and game
theoretic approaches that have dominated recent political science
writing on international cooperation....Will be essential reading
for all those concerned with the idea of international society and
the scope and character of international order."--Ethics
"Solid and well-conceived....The arguments are addressed primarily
to the legal specialist, but Franck also provides valuable insights
to students of world politics....The book is a useful reminder of
the role of international law in world politics...[and] a good
source in learning about international law....Well worth the
investment of time and mental energy."--Choice
"Franck is the first person who truly attempts in a systematic
manner to make the concept of 'legitimacy' operational with regard
to public international law....A beautiful and surely provocative
book in a readable style....A stellar achievement."--Netherlands
