Iraq and the use of force in international law

Weller, M. (Marc) (Author). Lauterpacht Research Centre for International Law. (Added Author).

Summary: One million people in the UK alone demonstrated against the 2003 invasion of Iraq. A crucial element of the opposition to the war was the lack of a clear legal basis. This is the first book to analyze the lawfulness of the use of force against Iraq on the basis of formerly classified material made public by the official UK inquiry into the war.
