Summary:
"Corporations and states are creatures of law that claim rights, trade roles, and avoid responsibility based on legal concepts in international and domestic law. Using the concept of "attribution" as a touchstone, this cross-disciplinary book explores the law's diverse ways of constructing the identities and responsibilities of firms and states"-- Provided by publisher
