Description
Book Introduction
In the 4th edition, Chapter 10, ‘Extradition and Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters under the Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC)’, and Chapter 18, ‘International Environmental Law’ were added.
With the International Criminal Court (ICC) recently issuing arrest warrants for top leaders of several countries, extradition and criminal judicial cooperation between the ICC and its member states have become very important topics.
In addition, recent concerns about climate change and other climate change-related abnormalities and environmental pollution are making it necessary to further understand international environmental law.
In this respect, the fourth edition of this book adds explanations on the ICC's extradition system and international environmental law.
We have also added a brief introduction to how states acquire territory, and have revised some of the content to reflect changes in international law since the publication of the third edition.

Publisher's Review
Preface to the Fourth Edition
I am delighted and grateful to have published this fourth edition of this book.
In the 4th edition, Chapter 10, ‘Extradition and Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters under the Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC)’, and Chapter 18, ‘International Environmental Law’ were added.
With the International Criminal Court (ICC) recently issuing arrest warrants for top leaders of several countries, extradition and criminal judicial cooperation between the ICC and its member states have become very important topics.
In addition, recent concerns about climate change and other climate change-related abnormalities and environmental pollution are making it necessary to further understand international environmental law.
In this respect, the fourth edition of this book adds explanations on the ICC's extradition system and international environmental law.
We have also added a brief introduction to how states acquire territory, and have revised some of the content to reflect changes in international law since the publication of the third edition.
There are many people I would like to thank for publishing this fourth edition.
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the professors of Ewha Womans University Law School, including former Dean Kang Dong-beom, former Dean Jeong Hyeon-mi, Dean Kim Hyeon-cheol, and Professor Choi Hee-kyung, for their help and generosity.
The author was deeply saddened by the passing of Professor Francis Anthony Boyle of the University of Illinois, who was the author's teacher and mentor, in January.
We pray that Professor Boyle, a great international law scholar and practitioner, may rest in heaven.
I would also like to thank the late Professor Lee Han-ki, the late Professor Bae Jae-sik, the late Professor Baek Chung-hyun, and Professor Lee Sang-myeon, who taught me international law at Seoul National University.
I would also like to express my gratitude to former President of the International Criminal Court Song Sang-hyun, former Vice President of the Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia Kwon O-gon, former Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Shin Kak-soo, former Ambassador to the Netherlands Kim Young-won, and Professor Emeritus Jeong In-seop, Professor Lee Geun-gwan, and Professor Lee Jae-min of Seoul National University.
I would also like to express my gratitude to former Judge Baek Jin-hyeon of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, former President Hong Ki-hoon of the Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology, Professor Emeritus Choi Tae-hyeon of Hanyang University, Judge Lee Ja-hyeong of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, and Judge Baek Ki-bong of the International Criminal Court.
Next, I would like to express my gratitude to Chairman Jong-man Ahn, CEO Sang-jun Ahn, and Director Seong-ho Cho of Park Young-sa for their help and hard work in producing this book, as well as to Vice President Seung-hyeon Lee, Manager Seong-hyeok Jeong, and all the staff.
I thank my father, father-in-law, and mother-in-law, and wish them good health.
I am grateful to my wife and children for always understanding and supporting me.
“Follow only what is right, so that you may live and occupy the land the Lord your God is giving you.”
