Legal Theory Blog: Moyn on Shklar on International Criminal Law

Samuel Moyn (Columbia University) has posted Judith Shklar on the Philosophy of International Criminal Law on SSRN. Here is the abstract:

This paper revives Judith Shklar's "Legalism" (Harvard University Press, 1964) with an eye to its relevance to international criminal law today. It examines her general jurisprudential outlook, and critique of various prominent mid-century positions, before turning to her account of the Nuremberg Trials. Showing that her defense of those trials may fail, the paper concludes by suggesting that the book's failure may make it more relevant to the contemporary enterprise of international criminal law rather than less.
