From a review by Patrick O Gudridge in "The American Journal of International Law", Jul 2001: " `The Law of Peoples' might someday be grouped with writings of Grotius and Kant...Rawls draws upon a vocabulary that, initially anyway, is not especially technical; but he puts seemingly common terms to use in notably dense and intricate ways. The impact of `The Law of Peoples' outside the precincts of political philosophy will depend, to a large extent, upon whether readers find this process of analytical elaboration persuasive. Students of international law, in particular, should regard the Rawlsian analysis as at least provocative. It deploys a strikingly limited conception of international law, seemingly grudging in its account of international human rights and international organizations, but shows that conception to possess surprising and strong origins. I will suggest at the close of this review that it is relatively easy to fit additional international law nearby (as it were) the international law norms that Rawls singles out, and in the process buttress Rawls's own construction, as well.
