Denna uppsats rör frågan om avtalsmekanismen och avtalstolkning i förhållande till smarta kontrakt.

Understanding foreign policy changes has been an important part of academic research for decades. During the Cold War, when national security was at its most uncertain, we saw a focus on recognizing the patterns that could lead to changes in how a state approaches their foreign policy.
