In this narrative, the bulk of 'trials' and 'errors' is left in the dark, confined to oblivion or left for erudition to recall as a curiosity. Written by an interdisciplinary group of lawyers, historians and social scientists, this volume relies on the rich and largely unexplored archive of institutional and legal experimentation since the late nineteenth century to shed new light on the history of international adjudication. It combines contextual accounts of failed, or aborted, as well as of 'successful' experiments to clarify our understanding of the past and present of international adjudication UR - https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/experiments-in-international-adjudication/F28DFA2D5582D79F6593336DB3F44A67 UR - https://www.cambridge.org/core/product/identifier/9781108565967/type/BOOK UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=2046189 UR - https://public.ebookcentral.proquest.com/choice/publicfullrecord.aspx?p=5745430 UR - http://www.vlebooks.com/vleweb/product/openreader?id=none&isbn=9781108638777 UR - https://www.vlebooks.com/vleweb/product/openreader?id=none&isbn=9781108565967 UR - https://www.vlebooks.com/vleweb/product/openreader?id=none&isbn=9781108601122 ER -
