Description
"Restraining Power" recovers a forgotten tradition-the "law of nature and nations," built on reciprocity, justice, and good faith. All states, David C.

In flouting these standards, US foreign policy has entered a destabilizing shadow world in which force and fraud seem normal"-- Provided by publisher.
