International Legal Discourse is a timely contribution

NEW RESEARCH COLLECTION
Democracy and International Law
Edited by Gregory H. Fox, Wayne State University Law School and Brad R. Roth, Wayne State University, US
At the end of the Cold War, international law scholars engaged in furious debate over whether principles of
democratic legitimacy had entered international law. Many argued that a “democratic entitlement” was emerging.
Others were skeptical that international practice in democracy promotion was either consistent or sufficiently
widespread and many found the idea of democratic entitlement dangerous. Those debates, while ongoing, have not
been comprehensively revisited in almost twenty years. Together with an original introduction, this volume collects
the leading scholarship of the past two decades on these and other questions. It focuses particular attention on the
normative consequences of the recent “democratic recession” in many regions of the world.
