Description

This is the two-volume boxed set containing the monograph The Governance of Occupied Territory in Contemporary International Law (Volume 1, ISBN 9781849462075) and the accompanying volume of documents on the occupation of Iraq, The Official Documents of the Coalition Provisional Authority and the Iraqi Governing Council (Volume 2, ISBN 9781841136424).

The invasion and occupation of Iraq rank among the most controversial and complex issues in international law in recent history. Selected documents are presented here, including the first complete set of all Regulations, Orders, Memoranda, and Public Notices issued by the US-led occupation administration of Iraq, the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA). Also included are CPA and CPA-related documents selected from more than 5,000 unclassified CPA documents and received under freedom of information requests lodged in the US, the UK, Australia, and Switzerland. This collection makes important documents easily accessible to researchers and professionals. These documents are made searchable with a comprehensive table of documents, a list of abbreviations, more than 1,100 explanatory notes and cross-references, and a substantive subject index.
