Islands and International Law Summary

Islands and International Law by Professor Donald R Rothwell

Islands and their status in international law have become one of the more contentious issues in public international law. However, despite this, there is no contemporary book-length study on the question. This book fills that gap. Written by one of the worlds leading public international lawyers, it offers an authoritative overview of how public international law operates in relation to islands. Key issues such as artificial islands, archipelagos, sovereignty, territorial rights, maritime entitlements, and governance are explored in depth. This will become a classic text in the field of international law.

Islands and International Law Reviews

Does not shy away from any of the more complex or unsettled legal questions of the field, such as those concerning artificial islands, sea level rise, human rights of displaced persons, and changing state practice. Overall, this is an important and timely contribution to the legal discourse on islands in international law. * ZaoRV *
It has to be said that the production of this book was a commendable achievement, giving a broad and contemporary insight into insular issues in international law, and that overall the book is well researched and produced. * Ocean Yearbook *
