'This article-by-article commentary of the Resolution by the Institute of International Law (ILL) on State succession in matters of State responsibility is a remarkable scholarship work by two authors who are well-known specialists of this topic. … The book provides readers with a thorough and detailed analysis of the content and scope of application of each provision of the ILL Resolution. It also explains the reasons which led the Institute to adopt specific solutions to address particular problems of succession to responsibility. It contains the most up-to-date comprehensive survey of existing State practice, judicial decisions and scholarship on this issue, including the works of ILC Special Rapporteur Sturma in his proposed Draft articles on the same topic. The book is a significant and timely contribution to the analysis of the complicated question of State succession in matters of State responsibility, and will undoubtedly become an invaluable reference for all those who will have to deal with questions of State responsibility in situations of State succession.'
