Private Power and Global Authority Hardback: Transnational Merchant Law in the Global Political Economy: 90 (Cambridge Studies in International Relations, Series Number 90) - Tapa dura

'... a very valuable step towards embracing a more comprehensive view of the complexity of developments in national, international and transnational law ... Private Power and Global Authority deserves to be highlighted in many respects ... a much needed study in internal relations. It is, in fact, more precisely a crucial report on international affairs.' EJIL

'... constitutes a very valuable step towards embracing a more comprehensive view of the complexity of developments in national, international and transnational law ... a worthy attempt to visit and revisit the traditional approaches with which we have all been trained and professionalized ... Private Power and Global Authority deserves to be highlighted in many respects ... a much-needed study ... a crucial report on internal affairs ...'. European Journal of International Law

'What is interesting, and of high academic importance, is the way in which the author transcends the mere description of the transnational merchant law and places it into its true historical perspective.' Uniform Law Review
