Inspiring and distinctive, After Meaning provides a radical challenge to the way in which international law is thought and practised. Jean d’Aspremont asserts that the words and texts of international law, as forms, never carry or deliver meaning but, instead, perpetually defer meaning and ensure it is nowhere found within international legal discourse.

Inspiring and distinctive, After Meaning provides a radical challenge to the way in which international law is thought and practised. Jean d’Aspremont asserts that the words and texts of international law, as forms, never carry or deliver meaning but, instead, perpetually defer meaning and ensure it is nowhere found within international legal discourse.
In challenging the dominant meaning-centrism of the international legal discourse and shedding light on the sovereignty of forms, this book promotes a radical new attitude towards textuality in international law. The author offers new perspectives on interpretation, critique, history, comparison, translation and referencing, inviting international lawyers to reinvent their engagement with these discourses. Chapters define meaning and form in international law, explore deferral of meaning and make an unprecedented use of post-structuralist theory to rethink international law.
经过意义将是法律学者,研究人员和学生的重要参考点,他们寻求理解国际法中意义的不同方式。这本书与后勤主义主义的参与也将对任何对语言哲学和文学理论感兴趣的人都有利益。

‘If you are the rare kind of jurist on the international scene disposed to engage in introspection so radical that none of your epistemic postulates will be safe, not even your most evident assumptions (that the words of a law-text carry a meaning at once ascertainably present and transmissible, for example), if you think you can withstand the affective cost of such profound intellectual self-transformation, then this title might be your rare kind of book.’
