Examines the borderline between traditional economic theory and the
particular problems of developing countries. The ethics of
redistribution, and the impact on the development process of the
interaction between national state bureaucracy and international
institutions are considered.
Anthony Carty offers an internal critique of the discipline of
international law whilst showing the necessary place for philosophy
within this subject area. By reintroducing philosophy into the
heart of the study of international law, he explains how
traditional philosophy has always been an integral part of the
discipline. However, this has been driven out by legal positivism,
which has, in turn, become a pure technique of law. He explores the
extent of the disintegration and confusion in the discipline and
offers various ways of renewing philosophical practice.By covering
a range of approaches - post-structuralism, neo-Marxist
geopolitics, social-democratic constitutional theory and
existential phenomenology - this book will encourage you to think
afresh about how far to bring order to, or find order in,
contemporary international society.

Originally published in 1986 this book has become a classic of
international law literature. It was a penetrating critique of the
methodology of international law as it had come to be understood
and accepted by the generality of international lawyers. It called
for a realisation of the crucial role which international lawyers
should play in reflecting in the nature and implications of the
principles and arguments used by governments and other actors in
the international stage. It called for a positive legal analysis of
international issues. This edition comes with a new 10,000 word
introduction that will put the original work it in its proper
historical context. New generations of international legal scholars
who did not read Carty in the 1980s and who have had little chance
to do so since then because of the book's unavailability will show
a great deal of interest in delving into the thoughts of one of the
most influential critical legal thinkers. -- .
