More Description Northeast Asian Perspectives on International Law: Contemporary Issues and Challengescontends that international law is not only poised to take a bigger role in bringing about a resolution to the modern questions confronted by Japan, the People's Republic of China, and North and South Korea, but that international lawyers of the region are working to bring about greater regional cooperation and integration as seen in other regions in the world. This edited volume was inspired by the first joint international academic conference of international lawyers from the Chinese Society of International Law, Japanese Society of International Law, and Korean Society of International Law which took place in Seoul, Korea on July 3, 2010. With a range of timely topics including, but not limited to, North Korean human rights, the South China Sea, and Japan's efforts in UN peacekeeping operations, the esteemed contributors to Northeast Asian Perspectives on International Law: Contemporary Issues and Challengesexamine how international law can promote peace and justice in Northeast Asia.
