This volume, the first of two, charts the emergence of the American tradition of international law from its English roots in the 18th century to the outbreak of World War I in 1914. This intellectual history sets out to explain how America has arrived at its present approach to international
law, and thus illuminates its distinctive foreign policy.
Mark W. Janis is the William F. Starr Professor of Law at the University of Connecticut School of Law.
