International law and the socialist world
Review by Sandra Ricker
Socialism and International Law (Oxford University Press, 2024), edited by Raluca Grosescu and Ned Richardson-Little, examines how socialist actors and governments from Eastern Europe, Africa, and Asia contributed to shaping international law as it is practiced today. Sandra Ricker emphasises the current relevance of the volume, noting that it appears at a moment when our dense lattice of international organizations, treaties, and courts has come under attack.
