Anthony Carty

Opis

A fundamental challenge to the foundations of the discipline of international law
Anthony Carty critiques the discipline of international law, showing the necessary place of philosophy within it. He shows you how traditional philosophy has always been an integral part of international law.
Carty explores the extent of the disintegration and confusion in the discipline and offers various ways of renewing philosophical practice. A range of approaches are covered - post-structuralism, neo-Marxist geopolitics, social-democratic constitutional theory and existential phenomenology - encouraging the reader to think afresh about how far to bring order to, or find order in, contemporary international society.
