Reviews

The first edition of he International Law of Occupation was the first book in decades that was devoted to examining the law of occupation in depth. ... Benvenisti's updated and expanded edition adds much to this underdeveloped area of scholarship by thoughtfully considering its most difficult aspects, and his work continues to stand out for its detailed analysis of the key historical events that have shaped the development of the law of occupation for more than a century. The quick arrival of the paperback edition makes it accessible to an even wider audience. Anne-Marie Carstens, The British Yearbook of International Law


`The second edition seeks to make sense of an explosion in state practice, judicial opinions, UN-sponsored activity, emerging cognate doctrines, and scholarly commentary, all of which have placed occupation law at the centre of some of the thorniest (and most politicized) debates in contemporary international law.' Gregory Fox, European Journal of International Law
