"The [] rise of authoritarianism at home is precipitating a kind of international authoritarianism, in which the American president can unleash the most powerful military the world has ever known on a whim."
My latest, in @nytimes.com: The Danger of an Unrestrained President to the World www.nytimes.com/2025/06/23/o...
Here, @scottjshapiro.bsky.social and I consider the collapse of the prohibition on the use of force and the likely consequences: a global arms race, wars of conquest, shrinking trade, and the end of global cooperation. We chart another potential path, but it would require courage and quick action.
Glad to talk with Linda Kinstler for this @theguardian.com long read. The situation may not be quite as dire as the title suggests, but the challenges are very very real. It's time for creative thinking about what comes next. www.theguardian.com/law/2025/jun...
Are we witnessing the death of international law?
The long read: A growing number of scholars and lawyers are losing faith in the current system. Others say the law is not to blame, but the states that are supposed to uphold it
