Victors' Justice by Danilo Zolo

Victors' Justice by Danilo Zolo

Asserts that contemporary international law functions as a two-track system: a made-to-measure law for the hegemons and their allies, on the one hand, and a punitive regime for the losers and the disadvantaged, on the other.

Zolo has developed an illuminating and unusually coherent critique of the international legal order, its aspirations, its many uses, its successes and failures-- Chase Madar * London Review of Books *
Victors' Justice will certainly stimulate the intellectual debate surrounding international justice in the modern world. * Parameters *

Danilo Zolo was Professor of Philosophy and Sociology of Law at the University of Florence. He authored several books, including Democracy and Complexity, Cosmopolis: Prospects for World Government and Invoking Humanity: War, Law and Global Order.
