I have a new paper in the current (80:4) issue of the Modern Law Review. In it I try to think through what exactly we mean when we make claims of self-determination, and what kinds of policies those claims might in turn serve to justify. I put this theoretical discussion to work in trying to make sense of Article XX of the GATT, a core provision under which many of the trade regime’s most controversial cases have been decided.

Available open access (at least for the moment) at the publisher’s website.
