Reviews
'Any library featuring materials of both International Humanitarian Law and human rights must obtain this well-documented and insightful book for completeness of coverage.'
American Society of International Law Newlsetter, 2006.
'Dr Milano analyses the theoretical and practical significance of effectiveness and from this starting point examines the interplay between effectiveness, legality and that pragmatic halfway house, legitimacy, in contemporary unlawful territorial situations – a broader concept than occupation. In his conclusion he reflects on the ambiguous nature of effectiveness as a legal device placed both within and outside positive law, by looking at events in Iraq from 2003 onwards. This book is an absorbing and timely study of some of the major dilemmas of the contemporary international legal order.'
