Book Description
Plunder examines the dark side of the Rule of Law and explores how it has been used as a powerful political weapon by Weste countries in order to legitimize plunder – the practice of violent extraction by stronger political actors victimizing weaker ones. Challenges traditionally held beliefs in the sanctity of the Rule of Law by exposing its dark side Examines the Rule of Law’s relationship with ‘plunder’ – the practice of violent extraction by stronger political actors victimizing weaker ones – in the service of Weste cultural and economic domination Provides global examples of plunder:of oil in Iraq; of ideas in the form of Weste patents and intellectual property rights imposed on weaker peoples; and of liberty in the United States Dares to ask the paradoxical question – is the Rule of Law itself illegal?
