Russian doctrine of international law after the annexation of Crimea

E-book

The monograph is a comprehensive study of approaches adopted by the Russian doctrine

of international law regarding the 2013-2015 events which are directly or indirectly connected

with international legal relations between Ukraine and the Russian Federation – the Revolution

of Dignity in Ukraine, the use of force by Russia in Crimea, the annexation of the peninsula,

and the armed conflict in parts of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. The monograph

offers an analysis of the key arguments produced to justify the “lawfulness” of Russia’s actions

and expose “violations of international law by Ukraine” and evaluates the conclusions drawn

by Russian researchers from the standpoint of international legal norms and principles, the

practice of their application, and modern approaches in global international law. The author

identifies the changes that took place in the Russian doctrine on the main issues in international

legal regulation of relations between states under the influence of the 2013-2015 events

and summarizes the special features of contemporary doctrinal approaches and the main tendencies

of their transformation.
