Judicial Reconstruction and the Rule of Law Reassessing Military Intervention in Iraq and Beyond

Challenging the dominant rhetoric of international rule of law operations, this work reasserts the centrality of the community in building its own relationship with law, counselling military interveners to refocus exclusively on restoring security using their extraordinary powers under international law.
