handle is hein.journals/ajil106 and id is 1 raw text is: AMERICAN JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL LAW VOL. 106 January 2012 NO. 1 CONTENTS PAGE The Empirical Turn in International Legal Scholarship Gregory Shaffer and Tom Ginsburg This article presents and assesses a new wave of empirical research on interna- tional law. Recent scholarship has moved away from theoretical debates over whether international law matters, and focuses instead on exploring the con- ditions under which international law is created and produces effects. As this empirical research program has matured, it has allowed for new, midlevel the- orizing that we call conditional international law theory. Political Science Research on International Law: The State of the Field EmilieM Hafner-Burton, David G. Victor, and Yonatan Lupu 47 Political scientists are actively engaged in research on many aspects of interna- tional law and organizations. This article reviews the key theories and empirical findings that have emerged over the last two decades of that research program. The aim, in addition to a comprehensive review and assessment, is to outline an agenda for collaboration between political scientists and international lawyers on topics that will advance the state of the art in both fields.
