1,575 words (approx. 6.3 pages) | 5 sources | 2006 United States


Paper Summary:

Will Durant, in "The Story of Civilization", argues that the development of the law of nations was in effect a fiction or a rationalization of Roman supremacy or economy of force. This essay proposes to refute this view with reference to a range of scholarship on the philosophy and history of law. The paper argues that it is in Durant's identification of the law of nations and natural law with Roman law that we find the central flaw in his argument.
