Special episode "Joseph Raz and International Law: An Unfinished Journey" 1:33:02

3 years тому1:33:02

1:33:02

Joseph Raz was one of the most influential legal and political philosophers who ever lived, and his passing in May 2022 marked the end of an epoch. The breadth and depth of his philosophical legacy is unmatched, and yet, unlike many influential legal philosophers (such as HLA Hart or Hans Kelsen), Raz left very few writings that deal with jurisprudential questions of international law. Why is that? And how can we draw on Raz’s ideas about human rights, the concept of a legal system, authority, normativity, and so on, to enrich the philosophy of international law? Speakers Samantha Besson, Collège de France Başak Çalı, Hertie School Başak Etkin (moderator), Université Paris 2 Panthéon-Assas Kostia Gorobets, University of Groningen Adil Haque (moderator), Rutgers University Miodrag Jovanović, University of Belgrade This episode was recorded during the event co-organized with ASIL’s International Legal Theory Interest Group.…
