商品簡介
Based on analyses of state practice, treaties, court decisions and scholarly writing, this study addresses the modern day phenomenon of multiple nationality. Boll (foreign service officer, US Department of State) does not argue that states should adopt a particular stance toward multiple nationality, but rather that the existence of multiple nationality cannot be avoided and that the fact that multiple nationality has become the norm has important consequences for international law and relationships between states. He does, however, survey arguments for and against multiple nationality and considers states' motivations in adopting particular attitudes toward the topic. The volume includes a detailed examination of the nature of nationality under international law and the concepts of nationality and citizenship under municipal law.
