"Emphatic of the importance of legal thought to the rise and fall of empires, this
book highlights the centrality of empires to the development of legal thought. Comprehension
of the development of legal thought over time is necessary for any historical, philosophical,
practical, or theoretical enquiry into the subject today, it is argued here. When
seen against the background of broad geopolitical, diplomatic, administrative, intellectual,
religious, and commercial changes, law begins to appear very resilient. It withstands
the rise and fall of empires. It provides the framework for the establishment of new
orders in the place of the old. Today what analogies, principles, and authorities
of law have survived these changes continue to inform much of the international legal
tradition."
