The Rights of Man Today
This book analyzes the evolution of the idea of human rights, the "universalization" of human rights as reflected in the spread of "constitutionalism" to almost all states. It focuses on the conditions that must exist if the rights of men and women are to be more secure in the future
Kosovo and the Law of “Humanitarian Intervention”
Kosovo" has compelled us to revisit the troubled law of "humanitarian intervention." The terrible facts in and relating to Kosovo in 1998-1999 are known and little disputed. The need to halt horrendous crimes against humanity, massive expulsions and war crimes, was widely recognized. NATO intervention by military force was widely welcomed, but it was also sharply criticized. And it inspired much searching of soul by students of international law

The Universality of the Concept of Human Rights
Debate about the universality of human rights requires definition of “human rights” and even of “universality.” The idea of human rights is related but not equivalent to justice, the good, democracy. Strictly, the conception is that every individual has legitimate claims upon his or her society for defined freedoms and benefits; an authoritative catalog of rights is set forth in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The rights of the Univers…
The Constitution for its Third Century: Foreign Affairs
The bicentennial of the United States Constitution has been marked by much celebration and some stocktaking. The Framers have been fully—if not fulsomely—praised, and there appears to be general enthusiasm about the legacy they left us. However, as regards the constitutional dispositions for the conduct of foreign affairs, there appears to have been little attention to the Framers and little inclination to celebrate what they ordained. Few have t…

Human Rights in Contemporary China
The President and International Law
In Garcia-Mir , the district court found that prolonged detention of the undocumented aliens was, in the circumstances, “arbitrary,” and therefore a violation of international law. But it also held that even though it was in violation of international law, the courts would not order an end to the detention because it had been authorized by the Attorney General. The court of appeals affirmed

The United Nations and Human Rights
Some writing about the UN may suggest that there are those who conceive of the elephant that is the United Nations largely in terms of its human rights programs. The allusion to the fabled task of the blind men is not intended to impugn the vision of those who concentrate on that significant United Nations activity. The United Nations is a multifaceted and incongruous body, and the broadest view would not permit seeing it whole and in detail at t…

International Organization and the Rule of Law
“International-Law-and-Organization” has become a hyphenated conception but the implied interrelations are assumed rather than explored. All international organization, of course, may be seen as an aspect of law partaking of its forms and sharing its purposes. Law and organization have in common that, in both, nations eschew laissez-faire and “going it alone” and identify and prefer common interests. Often, on the other hand, one thinks of intern…
