Outline of Final Research Achievements

The research supported by this fund aimed to explore the discussions and thoughts of American international lawyers, such as Quincy Wright, Manley O.Hudson and Charles G. Fenwick. As the tension between the US and the Soviet Union intensified, those international lawyers engaged in active debates over what kind of policy the country should take in accordance with international law.
This researcher participated in an international research projected headed by Prof. Martti Koskenniemi of Helsinki University, and final outcome was published as a chapter of a book entitled as International Law and Empire.
