Plunder examines the dark side of the Rule of Law and
explores how it has been used as a powerful political weapon by
Western countries in order to legitimize plunder - the
practice of violent extraction by stronger political actors
victimizing weaker ones.
* 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?
