International Law, Literature, and Introspection

My former colleague Christopher Blakesley, now of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Law School, ruminates on the intersection among law, literature and self-reflection in a blogpost here at a new blog devoted to international penal law. Montaigne carried the art of self-study and introspection to a high art centuries ago; Professor Blakesley suggests that it's time to give it another go, and that literature can assist us. The blog at which he and other experts in international criminal law post is newly launched; it's called the AIDP Blog. Check it out here.
