The present title is the last in a three-volume set addressing the umbrella theme of 'The Soviet Union & International Cooperation in Legal Matters'. The preceding installments treated the Soviet Union's record in the field of commercial arbitration & civil law, respectively. With the U.S.S.R. dead, use of the term 'Soviet Union' may call for some justification. In this instance, the desire to preserve stylistic continuity plays a role in the choice. Furthermore, the bulk of the monograph really does deal with the Soviet Union's track record in this domain on the assumption that much of its repertory in this theatre will be salvaged through the machinery of state succession in fairly intact or recognizable shape & affect the deployment of future modes of management of these affairs en route to stripping the old inventory of its 'socialist' attributes & updating the core package. In that sense, the volume marks the end of a Soviet branch of international law & the dawn of a new discipline of research in the local brand of post-Soviet international law. It seems safe to say, though, that whatever lies ahead is going to have its roots in the country's contemporary history, & understanding these antecedents will make the job of figuring out what to expect next a bit easier. The study concentrates essentially on post-World War II repertory, with some reference to pre-1945 antecedents in order to put the picture in a clearer perspective.Ginsburgs, George is the author of 'Soviet Union and International Cooperation in Legal Matters Civil Law' with ISBN 9780792313328 and ISBN 0792313321.
