Books by Stian Nordengen Christensen

This monograph proposes criteria for validity and plausibility of counterfactual analyses. The wars in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 1990s have shaped key international legal regimes and our thinking on conflict resolution. The book discusses three counterfactual hypotheses about how the conflicts could have been stopped earlier.

This monograph -- written by an historian and Norwegian diplomat -- considers the past Westphalian Paradigm and present Popular Sovereign Paradigm of the international order, and discusses possible elements of a new paradigm for a global order suitable to address contemporary problems that transcend national borders.
