Summary:
From Eastern Europe to Africa and Asia, socialist governments and experts have fundamentally shaped progressive ideas of international law: from anti-imperialism and anti-racism, to health as a human right. This volume explores the importance of these contributions pre- and post-Cold War, as well as their relevance to current international crises.
