Postdoctoral fellow launches book on the development of international law
Dr Nicolaas Buitendag, a postdoctoral fellow at the North-West University’s (NWU’s) Faculty of Law, recently launched a book titled States of exclusion: A critical systems theory reading of international law.
This open-access scholarly book published by Aosis scrutinises the inclusivity or lack thereof in the historical development of international law.
In the seven-chapter book, Dr Buitendag challenges and problematises the thoughts of many that sovereignty is a good thing that allows communities to take part in international politics.
