David Kennedy joins us to discuss a political economy approach to global governance and what international law has got to do with it.
His most recent book with Harvard University Professor, Of Law and the World, is a searching dialogue between himself and close associate and renowned critical legal scholar in his own right, Professor Martti Koskenniemi.
In this conversation we talk about a political economy approach to global governance, what international law has got to do with it, experts and lawyers as "governors," the role of the critical scholarship, and much, much more.
David can be found here at Harvard Law School.
