Summary International Law and Islam: Historical Explorations' offers a unique opportunity to examine the Islamic contribution to the development of international law in historical perspective. The role of Islam in its various intellectual, political and legal manifestations within the history of international law is part of the exciting intellectual renovation of international and global legal history in the dawn of the twenty-first century. The present volume is an invitation to engage with this thriving development after 'generations of prejudiced writing' regarding the notable contribution of Islam to international law and its history.
