The Philosophy of International Law de Samantha Besson

The Philosophy of International Law

Editat de Samantha Besson, John Tasioulas
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mar 2010
International law has recently emerged as the subject-matter of an exciting new field of philosophical investigation. The Philosophy of International Law contains 29 cutting-edge essays by leading philosophers and international lawyers, all published here in English for the first time, that address the central philosophical questions about international law. The volume's overarching theme is the moral and political values that should guide the assessment and development of international law and institutions. Some of the essays tackle general topics such as the sources and legitimacy of international law, the nature of international legal adjudication, whether international law can or should aspire to be 'democratic', and the significance of state sovereignty. The other contributions address philosophical problems arising in specific domains of international law, such as human rights law, international economic law, international criminal law, international environmental law, and the laws of war.This volume is the most up-to-date and comprehensive treatment of the philosophy of international law in existence. It is also distinguished by its 'dialogical' methodology: there are two essays on each topic, with the second author engaging with the arguments of the first. It is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the nature and value of international law.

Recenzii

heartily recommended ... demonstrates the best sort of international collaborative cosmopolitanism ... it will be a source of challenging ideas and the subject of useful engagement as students develop their own perspective on the global possibilites for the rule of law.
Samantha Besson and John Tasioulas have done lawyers, scholars and the public an enormous service in their volume The Philosophy of International Law by raising the level of debate about the moral and political standards that should govern the assessment (and development) of international institutions... Besson and Tasioulas, the guiding lights behind this project, represent a brilliant new generation of philosophers speaking directly to a new generation of lawyers about international law - and they have manafed to gather many of the most perceptive and serious scholars on the subject together in one volume... This is an exciting and very important volume.
[A]n impressive collection on conceptual issues in academic law.
...this is a deep, serious and profound work. It achieves its agenda-shaping aim, and looks set to become the standard work on its subject.
...what international law today needs is exactly the kind of systematic and normative thinking about its structures and implications that Besson, Tasioulas, and their co-authors exercise in this book.
The Philosophy of International Law can be heartily recommended ... a source of challenging ideas
Certainly the book ought to be considered a wonderful introduction to students in liberal philosophy and/or international law. Rarely delving into specialized terms of either academic tradition, the book is accessible and intellectually tich.
