As the future of international law has become a growing site of
struggle within and between powerful states, debates over the
history of international law have become increasingly heated.
International Law and the Politics of History explores the
ideological, political, and material stakes of apparently technical
disputes over how the legal past should be studied and understood.
Drawing on a deep knowledge of the history, theory, and practice of
international law, Anne Orford argues that there can be no
impartial accounts of international law's past and its relation to
empire and capitalism. Rather than looking to history in a doomed
attempt to find a new ground for formalist interpretations of what
past legal texts really mean or what international regimes are
really for, she urges lawyers and historians to embrace the
creative role they play in making rather than finding the meaning
of international law.
