The Law of Voting and the Voting For Law

This article seeks to accomplish three goals. First, it seeks to explain apparent paradoxes in the jurisprudence of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg by applying principles from the academic discipline called Public Choice. Secondly, it seeks to show that the Public Choice phenomenon called the Doctrinal Paradox is more than just a possibility in international courts. It, in fact, emerged repeatedly at the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. Thirdly, by combining the work of legal historians with Public Choice theorists, this article hopes to bridge the gap between the two disciplines and provide a clearer understanding of the development of international law
