Joshua Paine, Australian Year Book of International Law `Well worth reading ... a welcome contribution to international law.' Jan Klabbers, European Journal of International Law `Ingo Venzke's book How Interpretation Makes International Law: On Semantic Change and Normative Twists tells a number of tortoise and hare tales with respect to the creation of international law. In these tales the hare is represented by a number of different concepts and actors: formalism, states, sovereignty and sources-centred theoretical accounts of international law and the classic understanding of pacta sunt servanda as the ultimate maxim of how international law comes into existence ... the tortoises in Venzke's thesis are portrayed by the theory of communicative action, jurisgenerative practice and the interpretive acts of international administrations and other participants in international legal relations. Venzke's book is a significant step in providing a concrete theoretical framework for the analysis of how tortoises run. They run in many ways, but a very significant one is interpretation.'
