- Challenges traditionally held beliefs in the sanctity of the
Rule of Law by exposing its dark side
- Examines the Rule of Law's relationship with 'plunder' –
the practice of violent extraction by stronger political actors
victimizing weaker ones – in the service of Western cultural
and economic domination
- Provides global examples of plunder: of oil in Iraq; of ideas
in the form of Western patents and intellectual property rights
imposed on weaker peoples; and of liberty in the United
States
- Dares to ask the paradoxical question – is the Rule of Law itself illegal?
