Standing Guard - Charles Lipson - Bog

"Standing Guard is a superb study of the rules and practices devised by capital-exporting countries and multinational enterprises to protect foreign investments. In this theoretically sophisticated and historically rich book, Charles Lipson demonstrates the significance of norms, rules, and institutions in what is often misleadingly characterized as 'international anarchy.' . . . Standing Guard constitutes an exemplary analysis of how both to analyze the evolution of international regimes and to link the study of regimes to that of foreign policy."--Robert O. Keohane
