The philosophy of international law in contemporary scholarship: overcoming negligence through the global expansion of human rights
Resumen
Notwithstanding its importance, there is a current negligence to the philosophy of international law among authors from all over the world. Despite researching fields such as distributive justice, group justice and transnational justice, not enough though is put into understanding current legal theories behind international law, neither into the possibility of conceiving a moral theory in the context of legal pluralism.
In view of these main issues, the article aims not only to examine international law as a viable field of study for the philosophy of law in the context of legal pluralism, but also to further understand its developmental consequences for the international order.
