• Resumen

  • This article focuses on Nicholas Politis� efforts to outlaw war and define aggression, and places them within the progress narrative of the interwar international law discourse. This narrative is defined by its rejection of sovereignty; its belief in codification; and the recognition of the individual as a subject of international law. Politis� projects envisage international law as a means towards an ecumenical world order built around individuals.
