The volume under review contains a collection of contributions dealing with the role of law in international politics. In the process of globalization, law is torn between resistance to and the embrace of political change. This volume explores this situation in challenging, sometimes provocative articles. Three themes stand out: the relationship between legal and political theory, the search for legal regulation of globalization and the role of the Security Council. In all of these areas, international lawyers should not be blind to the political environment of international law, but nevertheless insist on legal accountability as a precondition for the legitimacy of the exercise of political power.
