Book Description
Described in Holy Scriptures of all religions, in mythology, in fairy tales, and allegories that describe the essence and nature of the human. These divine laws act as guidelines to define the order and structure of creation, govern every form of life and every action that occurs in the universe. The same principles work for all alike. No law activates itself, it is we who activate a law of the universe through our thoughts and actions individually and collectively. As we have been given the freedom of choice we can make right or wrong choices. But if we repent there are laws that allow us to correct our mistakes. Heaven meets earth in the human who is both physical and divine. The human being is the highest manifestation of the cosmos and is co-creator pre-destined as the builder and collector of all treasures of the universe. The power of creativeness responds to the call of the spirit and the human determines his own destination in the cosmos. This book is meant as a guideline, to inspire you, to arouse your curiosity and to prompt your own inner personal dialogue as we witness the cosmic cyclic changes of the universe. We have no alternative but to grow in awareness, expand our consciousness, connect with the Spirit and flow along with these cosmic energies.

The Hidden History of International Law in the Americas
Author: Dr. Juan Pablo Scarfi
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190622350
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
International law has played a crucial role in the construction of imperial projects. Yet within the growing field of studies about the history of international law and empire, scholars have seldom considered this complicit relationship in the Americas. The Hidden History of International Law in the Americas offers the first exploration of the deployment of international law for the legitimization of U.S. ascendancy as an informal empire in Latin America. This book explores the intellectual history of a distinctive idea of American international law in the Americas, focusing principally on the evolution of the American Institute of International Law (AIIL). This organization was created by U.S. and Chilean jurists James Brown Scott and Alejandro Alvarez in Washington D.C. for the construction, development, and codification of international law across the Americas. Juan Pablo Scarfi examines the debates sparked by the AIIL over American international law, intervention and non-intervention, Pan-Americanism, the codification of public and private international law and the nature and scope of the Monroe Doctrine, as well as the international legal thought of Scott, Alvarez, and a number of jurists, diplomats, politicians, and intellectuals from the Americas. Professor Scarfi argues that American international law, as advanced primarily by the AIIL, was driven by a U.S.-led imperial aspiration of civilizing Latin America through the promotion of the international rule of law. By providing a convincing critical account of the legal and historical foundations of the Inter-American System, this book will stimulate debate among international lawyers, IR scholars, political scientists, and intellectual historians.

To the Uttermost Parts of the Earth
Author: Martti Koskenniemi
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1009038206
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 1127
Book Description
To the Uttermost Parts of the Earth shows the vital role played by legal imagination in the formation of the international order during 1300–1870. It discusses how European statehood arose during early modernity as a locally specific combination of ideas about sovereign power and property rights, and how those ideas expanded to structure the formation of European empires and consolidate modern international relations. By connecting the development of legal thinking with the history of political thought and by showing the gradual rise of economic analysis into predominance, the author argues that legal ideas from different European legal systems - Spanish, French, English and German - have played a prominent role in the history of global power. This history has emerged in imaginative ways to combine public and private power, sovereignty and property. The book will appeal to readers crossing conventional limits between international law, international relations, history of political thought, jurisprudence and legal history.

Border Law
Author: Deborah A. Rosen
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674425715
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
The First Seminole War of 1816–1818 played a critical role in shaping how the United States demarcated its spatial and legal boundaries during the early years of the republic. Rooted in notions of American exceptionalism, manifest destiny, and racism, the legal framework that emerged from the war laid the groundwork for the Monroe Doctrine, the Dred Scott decision, and U.S. westward expansion over the course of the nineteenth century, as Deborah Rosen explains in Border Law. When General Andrew Jackson’s troops invaded Spanish-ruled Florida in the late 1810s, they seized forts, destroyed towns, and captured or killed Spaniards, Britons, Creeks, Seminoles, and African-descended people. As Rosen shows, Americans vigorously debated these aggressive actions and raised pressing questions about the rights of wartime prisoners, the use of military tribunals, the nature of sovereignty, the rules for operating across territorial borders, the validity of preemptive strikes, and the role of race in determining legal rights. Proponents of Jackson’s Florida campaigns claimed a place for the United States as a member of the European diplomatic community while at the same time asserting a regional sphere of influence and new rules regarding the application of international law. American justifications for the incursions, which allocated rights along racial lines and allowed broad leeway for extraterritorial action, forged a more unified national identity and set a precedent for an assertive foreign policy.
