A really strong work of international legal history. I’m honestly shocked no one has paid close attention to international arbitration before, Powers does such a compelling job articulating its importance as an instrument, and then a tool of resistance against, American expansion. She also synthesizes so much of the historiography that the footnotes are a treasure trove on their own. Dr. Powers please take me as a grad student 🙏
