En savoir plus sur le livre
This book reveals the impact of expert knowledge on political and economic life, highlighting how interactions among politicians, citizens, and experts lead to a landscape marked by inequality and injustice. Drawing from his experiences with international lawyers, human rights advocates, and policy professionals, the author provides an insider's view of the complexities surrounding global governance. He delves into the conflicts and assumptions that underpin expert authority, exploring how experts have developed a legal vocabulary for global management that often overlooks its distributive effects. Central to this discourse is the concept of struggle, where everyday disputes illustrate how expertise can detach from analytical rigor and observable facts. The author suggests methods to model and challenge expert work, culminating in a detailed examination of modern law in warfare as a case study of expertise in action. By charting a new direction for global governance, this important work discusses how expert knowledge can be leveraged to address and transform an unjust world, particularly at a time when the international order is poised for change.
