Breaking the Bonds of Humanity: Dehumanization in International Law

NIAS Seminar

Luigi Corrias, Assistant Professor of Philosophy of Law at VU University Amsterdam, will discuss his project on humanity in international law.

Breaking the Bonds of Humanity: Dehumanization in International Law

What does the appeal to humanity in international law mean? This central question encompasses three sub-questions:
1. What does the experience of dehumanization in international law tell us about the harm involved?
2. What does an analysis of this harm reveal about a specific sub-field of international law?
3. How can the international legal order respond to dehumanization?
