Kroll,Stefan, Normgenese durch Re-Interpretation--China und das europ~iische VOlkerrecht im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert （Genesis of Norms via Re-interpretation--China and European International Law in the 19th and 20th Centuries）

In Stefan Kroll＇s book Genesis of Norms via Re-Interpretation, the authoranalyzes the reception and adaptation of the European discipline of international law during the late 19th and early 20th centuries in China. Combining philological methods taken from sinology with methods in the fields of legal history and sociology, he is able to create an analytical framework that describes the genesis of international norms as a process of isomorphic strategy, a term that is discussed in what follows.
