Interpreting Human Rights Interpreting Human Rights In recent decades, human rights have come to occupy an apparently unshakable position as a key and pervasive feature of contemporary global public culture. At the same time, human rights have become a central focus of research in the social sciences, embracing distinctive analytical and empirical agendas for the study of rights. This volume gathers together original social-scientific research on human rights, and in doing so situates them in an open intellectual terrain, thereby respond- ing to the complexity and scope of meanings, practices, and institutions associated with such rights. Chapters in the book examine diverse theoretical perspectives and explore such issues as health, indigenous peoples’ rights, cultural politics, the United Nations, women and violence, the role of corporations and labour law. Written by leading scholars in the field and from a range of disciplines across the social sciences, this volume combines new empirical research with both established and innovative social theory.

Chapter 11 – Revolution? . 132 1 Chapter 1 - The Scream I In the beginning is the scream. We scream. When we write or when we read, it is easy to forget that the beginning is not the word, but the scream. Faced with the mutilation of human lives by capitalism, a scream of sadness, a scream of horror, a scream of anger, a scream of refusal: NO. The starting point of theoretical reflection is opposition, negativity, struggle. It is from rage that thought is born, not from the pose of reason, not from the reasoned-sitting-back-and-reflecting-on- the-mysteries-of-existence that is the conventional image of ‘the thinker’. We start from negation, from dissonance. The dissonance can take many shapes. An inarticulate mumble of discontent, tears of frustration, a scream of rage, a confident roar. An unease, a confusion, a longing, a critical vibration. Our dissonance comes from our experience, but that experience varies. Sometimes it is the direct experience of exploitation in the factory, or of oppression in the home, of stress in the office, of hunger and poverty, or of state violence or discrimination.

  • Eugen Ehrlich, Evgeny Pashukanis, and Meaningful Freedom Through Incremental Jurisprudential Change
    Journal of Libertarian Studies JLS Volume 23 (2019): 64–90 A Practical Approach to Legal- Pluralist Anarchism: Eugen Ehrlich, Evgeny Pashukanis, and Meaningful Freedom through Incremental Jurisprudential Change Jason M. Morgan2 ABSTRACT: John Hasnas (2008) has famously argued that anarchy is obvious and everywhere. It is less well known, however, that Hasnas also argues that anarchy must be achieved gradually. But how can this work? In this paper, I show that directly confronting state power will never produce viable anarchy (or minarchy). Using the example of Soviet jurist Evgeny Pashukanis, I detail an episode in apparent anti-statism which, by relying on the state, ended in disaster for the putative anti-statist. I next show how combining the theories of Austrian legal thinker Eugen Ehrlich and American political philosopher William Sewell, Jr., can lead to a gradual undoing of state power via case law. Finally, I bring in the example of Japanese jurist and early anti-statist Suehiro Izutarō as a warning. Suehiro also attempted to decrease state power by means of case law, but because he lacked a clear anti-statist teleology he ended up becoming an accomplice of state power, even imperialism. The way to Hasnian anarchy/minarchy lies through the skillful application of case law with an eye always towards the attenuation, and eventual elimination, of the power of the state. Jason M. Morgan ([email protected]) is associate professor of foreign languages at Reitaku University. The author would like to thank Lenore Ealy, Joe Salerno, and Mark Thornton for helpful comments on an early draft of this article.

  • The Situation on the International Legal Theory Front: the Power of Rules and the Rule of Power
    q EJIL 2000 ............................................................................................. The Situation on the International Legal Theory Front: The Power of Rules and the Rule of Power Gerry Simpson* Abstract The rejuvenation of international law in the last decade has its source in two developments. On the one hand, ‘critical legal scholarship’ has infiltrated the discipline and provided it with a new sensibility and self-consciousness. On the other hand, liberal international lawyers have reached out to International Relations scholarship to recast the ways in which rules and power are approached. Meanwhile, the traditional debates about the source and power of norms have been invigorated by these projects. This review article considers these developments in the light of a recent contribution to international legal theory, Michael Byers’ Custom, Power and the Power of Rules. The article begins by entering a number of reservations to Byers’ imaginative strategy for reworking customary law and his distinctive approach to the enigma of opinio juris. The discussion then broadens by placing Byers’ book in the expanding dialogue between International Relations and International Law. Here, the article locates the mutual antipathy of the two disciplines in two moments of intellectual hubris: Wilson’s liberal certainty in 1919 and realism’s triumphalism in the immediate post-World War II era. The article then goes on to suggest that, despite a valiant effort, Byers cannot effect a reconciliation between the two disciplines and, in particular, the power of rules and the three theoretical programmes against which he argues: realism, institutionalism and constructivism. Finally, Byers’ book is characterized as a series of skirmishes on the legal theory front; a foray into an increasingly rich, adversarial and robust dialogue about the way to approach the study of international law and the goals one might support within the * Law Department, London School of Economics.

  • Three Voices of Socio-Legal Studies
    THREE VOICES OF SOCIO-LEGAL STUDIES Malcolm M. Feeley* Introduction The connection between law and contemporary social science emerged as a consequence of the quest for social reform. As law became more instrumental, it also became more empirical, more concerned with policy. For this process, it turned to social science. Social science com- plied and has become an adjunct to law in the quest for solving social problems. As this partnership has developed, the relationship between law and social science has matured. Not only has social science sought to educate and influence law, it has also incorporated law into its own disciplinary concerns. Furthermore, the field of socio-legal studies may be on the verge of establishing itself as a separate and distinct disci- pline, independent of the practical concerns of law. The scholarly intersection of law and social science - or socio-legal studies, as I shall call it - now speaks with at least three voices addressed to at least three audiences. It speaks as policy analysis, a handmaiden to law. It also speaks in the traditional language of the social sciences. Thirdly, it may be gaining a voice of its own, reflecting a belief that law is a distinct form of ordering that merits its own position among the scholarly disciplines, separate from both scholarly fields and the professional concerns of law. At their core, each of these enterprises entails a distinct voice, a distinct audience, and a distinct agenda. After tracing the recent history of the relationship between law and the social sciences in the United States, this article identifies three different voices in which socio-legal studies speak and their three some- what different audiences.

Opinion Makers Section In formulating his economic theory of sustainable development, Herman Daly pointed out that there are two main principles of sustainability in the management of resources (Daly, 1996): 1. the speed at which the resources are used must be equal to MCDA and sustainability their capacity to be regenerated; Boggia A., Paolotti L., Rocchi L. 2. the speed of production of waste must be equal to the capacity of absorption by the ecosystems into which the waste Department of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Sciences - is put.

Introduction “natural capital”: if this capacity cannot be maintained, the capital will be used up and sustainability is no longer In the last three decades words as sustainability, possible. sustainable or sustainable development, have become more and more familiar, both to decision makers and to Daly added that there are two ways of keeping total capital ordinary citizens. The general awareness that the current intact: development model is taking a wrong direction plays its role. For researchers, the key challenge consists in 1. Weak sustainability: this means keeping the sum “natural contributing to measure, drive and correct this capital + capital produced by man” at a constant value. The development model.
