Explore the intricate relationship between empire and international law through the compelling case of Nauru. This volume from Cambridge Studies in International and Comparative Law re-examines Nauru’s imperial history, charting its status shifts from protectorate to sovereign state. Cait Storr’s detailed analysis of jurisdiction and bureaucracy offers a fresh perspective on the transition from 19th-century imperialism to the modern state system. It argues that imperial administration shaped Nauru’s post-independence trajectory and redefines sovereign status as part of decolonisation. Essential for scholars and students of international relations, comparative law, and post-colonial studies in India.
