The idea of due process of law is recognised as the cornerstone of
domestic legal systems, and in this book Larry May makes a powerful
case for its extension to international law. Focussing on the
procedural rights deriving from Magna Carta, such as the rights of
habeas corpus (not to be arbitrarily incarcerated) and
nonrefoulement (not to be sent to a state where harm is likely), he
examines the legal rights of detainees, whether at Guantanamo or in
refugee camps. He offers a conceptual and normative account of due
process within a general system of global justice, and argues that
due process should be recognised as jus cogens, as universally
binding in international law. His vivid and compelling study will
be of interest to a wide range of readers in political philosophy,
political theory, and the theory and practice of international law.
