Rapid changes in global security challenge and test the boundaries of international law.

The global nature of contemporary security issues make understanding the role of international and transnational law in mediating and influencing those issues a vital area of study.

Law is increasingly called upon to respond to these challenges in innovative and nuanced ways.
