The concept of motion adopted in this book is based on the philosophy of Aristotle. Thus, kinesis and stasis, two sides of the same concept of 'motion', are the central themes of Treaties in Motion. The law of treaties is in constant motion, understood not only as locomotion, but also as motion through time and as change. In 2020, Professor Fitzmaurice has published (with Professor Panos Merkouris) a book Treaties in Motion: The Evolution of Treaties from Formation to Termination (Cambridge University Press, 2020).
