DESCRIPTION:\nJoin the UN Library & Archives Geneva for the launch of
  International Law for Diplomats. Bringing together current and former le
 gal advisers to ministries of foreign affairs and international organizati
 ons\, this authoritative volume is the first of its kind to offer practiti
 oners — lawyers and non-lawyers alike — a comprehensive and accessible
  guide to the full breadth of contemporary international law\, written by 
 those who have shaped and applied it firsthand. \n\n\nThrough twenty-two 
 chapters\, the volume covers the essential pillars of the international le
 gal order — from treaty negotiation and diplomatic law to human rights\,
  international humanitarian law\, disarmament\, environmental law\, and th
 e settlement of disputes before the International Court of Justice — wit
 h a practical perspective attuned to the demands of the diplomatic field.
   \n\n\nWith a foreword by Elinor Hammarskjöld\, the UN Legal Counsel\,
  the book speaks directly to the moment: at a time when international law 
 faces mounting challenges in principle and in practice\, it equips diploma
 ts with the legal knowledge and institutional understanding indispensable 
 to their mission. \n\n\nWe look forward to welcoming you to an engaging d
 iscussion with the editor and contributors\, followed by an interactive Q&
 A session.\n---\nModerated by the editor\, Amb. Mario OYARZÁBAL (Legal Ad
