"[An] excellent and very readable analysis....There is an excellent
blend of the legal, political, and diplomatic approaches which the
layman will find wide-ranging, informative, and
readable."--International Journal
"Particularly distinguished by the full account that he gives of
the legal development of the principle of self-determination and
its relation to sovereignty. Such an account is especially
important because both the substance and the rhetoric of the
Falklands dispute revolved around the conflict between these
principles."--Political Studies
"A very useful book, one that should be required reading for all
those interested in serious research on the ill-fated Malvinas
(Falkland) dispute between Argentina and the United Kingdom. The
book leaves almost no historical or political aspect of the dispute
unexamined. With an impressive display of research and
documentation, Gustafson aptly addresses matters of economics, of
domestic politics, and of pride and prestige, as well as the
pwychology of people
in power in both Argentina and the United Kingdom....Thorough,
serious, well-researched and well-written scholarly effort."--The
American Journal of International Law
"A tremendously useful contribution to what appears to be a new
genre in international legal analysis....A necessary addition to
any collection dealing with contemporary problems of international
law or to international relations in general. Highly recommended
for upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, and
faculty."--Choice
