Theory and Politics of the Law of Nations : Political Bias in International Law Discourse of Seven German Court Councilors in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries.

Emergence of the modern science of international law is usually attributed to Grotius and other somewhat heroic 'founders of international law.' This book offers a more worldly explanation why it was developed mostly by German writers in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
