{"product_id":"9781108718301","title":"International Law As We Know It : Cyberwar Discourse and the Construction of Knowledge in International Legal Scholarship by Lianne J.M. Boer","description":"International legal scholars tend to think of their work as the interpretation of rules: the application of a law 'out there' to concrete situations. This book takes a different approach to that scholarship: it views doctrine as a socio-linguistic practice. In other words, this book views legal scholars not as law-appliers, but as constructing knowledge within a particular academic discipline. By means of three close-ups of the discourse on cyberwar and international law, this book shows how international legal knowledge is constructed in ways usually overlooked: by means of footnotes, for example, or conference presentations. In so doing, this book aims to present a new way of seeing international legal scholarship: one that pays attention to the mundane parts of international legal texts and provides a different understanding of how international law as we know it comes about.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56368642163061,"sku":"9781108718301","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781108718301","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
