The book is a substantially revised and expanded version of a Ph.D. thesis that was defended under the supervision of Professor James Crawford at the Faculty of Law of the University of Cambridge, the United Kingdom.
"'It is the great merit of Dr Ziemele's work that she locates the specific questions of interest to the Baltic States and their peoples within the general framework of international law.... The result is a valuable account both of the specific and the general.' James Crawford, Whewell Professor of International Law, University of Cambridge."
