International Law: A Contemporary Approach draws upon a rich variety of international law materials and demonstrates how students are likely to encounter international law in practice. The book includes a diverse range of legal materials from international and regional systems around the world, including the United Nations, the International Criminal Court, regional human rights bodies, official government documents, and much more.

Like other books in the Interactive Casebook Series, the electronic version provides students with immediate access to treaties, court decisions, U.N. resolutions, videos, and other materials. Each chapter begins with learning objectives to help learning and assessment on key concepts. Each chapter concludes with an activity that assists students in applying their new knowledge to hypothetical factual situations. Hundreds of multiple-choice questions will help students master the material, and a Teachers’ Manual will guide new and not-so-new instructors.

This title utilizes the CasebookPlus™ platform. Anchored by faculty-authored self-assessments, CasebookPlus allows students to test their understanding of core concepts as they are learning them in class with quizzes keyed to each chapter, subject area review quizzes, and helpful explanations.
