University, Visiting Scholar at Tel Aviv University and Research

In their dedicated work the two authors find that the received
function of international courts as inter-state dispute settlers
has been significantly expanded. Von Bogdandy and Venzke succeed in
striking a comprehensible tone, which shows the consequences [of
international adjudication] for the lives of the readers.
*Berthold Merkle, Neue Züricher Zeitung*
The international law study In Whose Name contributes to the theory
of global governance with rare analytical clarity. This book will
quickly become unavoidable reading. ... Thanks to this work, the
cosmopolitical landscape will be accessible for legal lay
persons.
