Legal Orientalism: China, the United States, and Modern Law
Teemu Ruskola
After the Cold War, how did China become a global symbol of disregard for human rights, while the U. S. positioned itself as the chief exporter of the rule of law? Teemu Ruskola investigates globally circulating narratives about what law is and who has it, and shows how “legal Orientalism” developed into a distinctly American ideology of empire.
