THE COMMONWEALTH
CONSULTATION AND CO-OPERATION IN THE COMMONWEALTH, by Heather J. Harvey; Royal Institute of International Affairs; Oxford University Press. English price, 30/-. "[ HE Commonwealth "is a singularly lawless * association." The members are not even anywhere legally enumerated, In each successive year, it is something different-Ireland out, India in. All that anyone can do is to pin it down at a moment of time and say, for example, "This was the Commonwealth in April, 1951." And that is what the author has done. No opinions, no analysis; just references, quotations, sources-400 painstaking pages on the Crown, nationality and citizenship, the Imperial Conference, the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, meetings of Prime Ministers, standing machinery, collective defence, co-operative action for the control of atomic energy, participation in international organisations, the ratification of treaties, regional cooperation. This is a very good handbook.
