International Law of Detente: Arms Control, Eu ro pe an Security and East- West Coop-
eration (Sijthoff and Noordhoff International, 1978).
On the Brezhnev Doctrine in historical perspective, see Robert A. Jones, Th e Soviet
Concept of “Limited Sovereignty” from Lenin to Gorbachev: Th e Brezhnev Doctrine
(Macmillan, 1990). For the canonical exposition of the doctrine itself, see Sergei
Kovalev, “Sovereignty and International Duties of Socialist Countries,” Pravda, Sep.
25, 1968; translated and reprinted in 7 ILM 1323– 25 (1968).
Th e Reagan Doctrine was never encapsulated into a single specifi c formulation. For
the best exposition of it, see Jeanne J. Kirkpatrick and Allan Gerson, “Th e Reagan
Doctrine, Human Rights, and International Law,” in Louis Henkin et al., Right v.
Might: International Law and the Use of Force (Council on Foreign Relations, 1991),
19– 36. For a thorough general history of the Reagan Doctrine in action, though not
from a legal perspective, see James M. Scott, Deciding to Intervene: Th e Reagan Doc-
trine and American Foreign Policy (Duke University Press, 1996). On the two doc-
trines considered together and subjected to legal analysis, see W. Michael Reisman,
“New Wine in Old Bottles: Th e Reagan and Brezhnev Doctrines in Contemporary
International Law and Practice,” 13 Yale J. Int’l L. 171– 98 (1988), which argues (cau-
tiously) for their lawfulness.

of Sir Robert Jennings (Cambridge University Press, 1996), especially 179– 385, where
the court’s contributions to eleven areas of substantive law are covered. On the Inter-
national Law Commission, see R. P. Dhokalia, Th e Codifi cation of Public Interna-
tional Law (Manchester University Press, 1970), 145– 332; and Jeff rey S. Morton, Th e
International Law Commission of the United Nations (University of South Carolina
Press, 2000).
In post- 1945 realist and positivist thought, a key fi gure has been Georg Schwarzen-
berger. On his life and career, see Stephanie Steinle, “Georg Schwarzenberger (1908–
1991),” in Jack Beatson and Reinhard Zimmermann (eds.), Jurists Uprooted: German-
Speaking Émigré Lawyers in Twentieth- Century Britain, 663– 80 (Oxford University
Press, 2004); and, at greater length, Stephanie Steinle, Völkerrecht und Machtpolitik:
