Reviews

The Oxford Handbook of International Adjudication is not a simple study on the preeminent international courts in isolation. Nor does it present a linear narrative of the progressive growth and success of international adjudication. Rather, it is an ambitious project to explore how different institutional designs, political contexts, and compositions shape judicial decision-making and the ability of international adjudicative institutions to affect political outcomes. Laurence Boisson de Chazournes, The American Journal of International Law Comprehensive in its coverage, innovative in its wide variety of multi-layered approaches to international adjudication, this Handbook presents a highly stimulating challenge to our current perceptions of this subject. Georges Abi Saab This Handbook marks a milestone in the evolution of international courts and tribunals, transforming a field devoted to the careful documentation and analysis of individual institutions into a rich tapestry of cross-cutting themes and issues. It is an indispensable reference book for lawyers, political scientists, sociologists, and legal philosophers and is almost certain to be the precursor to a casebook and a set of web-based teaching materials. Anne-Marie Slaughter This book marks a great achievement and a genuine service to the international legal profession. I have not come across any other collective volume on international adjudication as enlightening and rewarding to read. As an insider, I had never expected to learn so much about what I was doing as a judge and an arbitrator. Bruno Simma
