{"product_id":"9781316218006","title":"Sovereignty, Statehood and State Responsibility: Essays in Honour of James Crawford","description":"This collection of essays focusses on the following concepts: sovereignty (the unique, intangible and yet essential characteristic of states), statehood (what it means to be a state, and the process of acquiring or losing statehood) and state responsibility (the legal component of what being a state entails). The unifying theme is that they have always been and will in the future continue to form a crucial part of the foundations of public international law. While many publications focus on new actors in international law such as international organisations, individuals, companies, NGOs and even humanity as a whole, this book offers a timely, thought-provoking and innovative reappraisal of the core actors on the international stage: states. It includes reflections on the interactions between states and non-state actors and on how increasing participation by and recognition of the latter within international law has impacted upon the role and attributes of statehood.","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47136912867568,"sku":"9781316218006","price":96.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781316218006_p0.jpg?v=1763707053","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781316218006","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
