International Legal Positivism in a Post-Modern World provides
fresh perspectives on one of the most important and most
controversial families of theoretical approaches to the study and
practice of international law. The contributors include leading
experts on international legal theory who analyse and criticise
positivism as a conceptual framework for international law, explore
its relationships with other approaches and apply it to current
problems of international law. Is legal positivism relevant to the
theory and practice of international law today? Have other answers
to the problems of international law and the critique of positivism
undermined the positivist project and its narratives? Do modern
forms of positivism, inspired largely by the theoretically
sophisticated jurisprudential concepts associated with Hans Kelsen
and H. L. A. Hart, remain of any relevance for the international
lawyer in this 'post-modern' age? The authors provide a wide
variety of views and a stimulating debate about this family of
approaches.
