Abstract
This issue features four reviews of the study of the law of international relations. International events during the past decade have forced international lawyers to rethink the adequacy of the fundamental normative framework of international society. The four reviews try to perform this task by analyzing a limited number of excellent studies on such fields of the law of international relations as the law of war, relation between international law and domestic law, the concept of norms in international relations, and the reservations to international human rights conventions
