With Forewords by Bernard Bot, Minister of Foreign Affairs of The Netherlands; Wim Deetman, Mayor of The Hague; and Hans Corell, Former Legal Counsel of the United Nations and Former Judge of AppealFormer United Nations Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali was the first to call The Hague the 'legal capital of the world'.

Rezension zu „The Hague - Legal Capital of the World “
'The present book - The Hague: Legal Capital of the World - serves the purpose of explaining in clear and matter-of-fact terms the institutions present in The Hague and how one can make use of them. It should be a useful tool in capitals and at the diplomatic representations in The Hague. But it should also be of use in teaching and at non-governmental organizations.' Hans Corell, former Legal Counsel of the United Nations 'By providing scholarly analysis of over a century of developments in The Hague, it forms a significant addition to the available literature on the subject. Naturally, the information in the book also provides a solid basis for understanding future developments, such as the work of the International Criminal Court.' Wim Deetman, Mayor of The Hague 'We in the Netherlands are proud to be at the heart of international legal practice and theory. When you read the interesting contributions to this book, you will undoubtedly understand why.' Bernard Bot, Min. of Foreign Affairs of The Netherlands
