- Abstract
The Chinese Journal of International Law has published a book review of Sean D. Murphy's "International Law Relating to Islands." The book, written by a distinguished American professor of international law, provides a systematic and comprehensive examination of the law relating to islands in public international law. It covers a wide range of topics, including territorial acquisitions, the law of the sea, and dispute settlement. The review praises the book for its fresh perspectives, critical analysis, and practical understanding of international law. However, it notes that the book does not discuss self-determination and human rights issues regarding islands and islanders. Overall, the review concludes that the book is an indispensable reference for scholars, practitioners, and students interested in territorial and maritime disputes and their peaceful settlement.
