Brill has published a book dealing with the
role of Islam in the history of international law.
ABOUT THE BOOK
International Law and Islam: Historical
Explorations offers a unique opportunity to examine the Islamic contribution to
the development of international law in historical perspective. The role of
Islam in its various intellectual, political and legal manifestations within
the history of international law is part of the exciting intellectual
renovation of international and global legal history in the dawn of the twenty-first
century. The present volume is an invitation to engage with this thriving
development after ‘generations of prejudiced writing’ regarding the notable
contribution of Islam to international law and its history.
