  • Contingency in International Law

    On the Possibility of Different Legal Histories

    Edited by Ingo Venzke, Kevin Jon Heller ...
    This book poses a question that is deceptive in its simplicity: could international law have been otherwise?

But behind every possibility of the past stands a reason why the law developed as it did. Only with a keen ... Read more

  • Bringing the State Back In

    Edited by Peter B. Evans, Dietrich Rueschemeyer, Theda Skocpol ...
    Until recently, dominant theoretical paradigms in the comparative social sciences did not highlight states as organizational structures or as potentially autonomous actors.
