What struck the Jury most is [the book's] broad and innovative perspective. The book embodies a "strategic vision" of the system and function of international law in its unity and diversity. Danae Azaria makes a genuine, real, impressive contribution for finding solutions to practical problems arising in the interconnected world of modern international law. It is a solid scholarly work analysing the law as it stands and demonstrating ways how it might be developed in a wider context surpassing the limits of the focus originally posed. It is an exceptional contribution to the science of international law.
