註釋
Around twenty years ago, a challenge was laid down to international law by those writing at the critical periphery of the discipline; a challenge that has yet to find satisfactory response. Although often (mistakenly) characterised as nihilist, this book seeks to recast it in positive terms; to pose the question of what if anything is left of international law and ethics if we accept both that apolitical rules are impossible and that the values that must inevitably be used to justify them are irreducibly, radically subjective. After detailed analyses of different political and international legal philosophers who have confronted this issue, the answer is located in a turn to literature and a rehabilitation of the ancient notion of rhetoric.
