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
