Compare Surrender Occupation and Private Property in International Law by Nisuke Ando, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

The most recent title to appear in the Oxford Monographs in International Law series, Surrender, Occupation, and Private Property in International Law examines the legal situation which arises during periods of occupation in respect of private property which is temporarily used, annexed, ordestroyed by occupying forces. It asks what happens to that property after occupation ceases, and addresses the issues of restitution and compensation which may sometimes arise. The author focuses upon the post-war occupation of Japan by American forces as the principal example around which todevelop his arguments, and makes extensive use of documents from this period. Relatively little has been written about this crucial period in Japanese history, and the successful linking of the historical and legal aspects in this study will make this book of considerable interest to internationallawyers and modern historians. | Surrender Occupation and Private Property in International Law by Nisuke Ando, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
