Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
The Making of International Law in Korea addresses the development of international law in Korea and Korea?s approach to contemporary international legal issues.
MoreLong description:
The Republic of Korea was colonialized in the early 20th century, achieved its independence, and rose from the ashes of the Korean War to become an Asian power. Korea?s ascent coincides neatly with the advent of globalization and growing importance of international law in managing the increasing interactions between states and other non-state entities such as multinational corporations, non-governmental organizations, and international organizations like the United Nations.
The Making of International Law in Korea addresses the developments of international law in Korea from human rights concerns to law of the sea issues; from maritime delimitation and access to ocean resources to other non-security matters. Offered as a textbook for academics and students, the authors demonstrate the increasingly important role of international law in shaping international relations in Northeast Asia and Korea.
"The book will be of great use and interest to students, researchers, and practitioners in East Asian diplomacy, public international law, international relations, and decision-makers in need of a better understanding of the settlement of international disputes in East Asia, in particular among Korea, Japan, and China, and indeed the wider world."
-Youngmin Seo, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Korea
