The U.S. Supreme Court and the Domestic Force of International Human Rights Law

by Stephen A. Simon

This book examines the debate over the domestic force of international human rights law through the U.S. Supreme Court's jurisprudence. By approaching the topic from the justices' vantage point, the analysis shows how multiple controversies are linked to the same overarching question and reveals a divide in the Court between two fundamentally different orientations toward the domestic impact of the international human rights regime.
