Why Is Brad R. Roth Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Brad Richard Roth is a professor of political science and law at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. Biography His research has focused on international law, political theory, and human rights. He received a B.A. from Swarthmore College, a J.D. from Harvard Law School, an LL.M. from Columbia Law School, and a PhD from the University of California at Berkeley. He has been described by James Gathii as a neoconservative realist in reference to Roth's book Governmental Illegitimacy in International Law.. This description has been rejected by Roth in his response to Gathii's review. Roth acknowledges that certain aspects of his book could be portrayed as conservative, "in the limited sense that it seeks to rationalize and bolster the conception of international legal order, premised on the twin principles of self-determination of peoples and non-intervention in international affairs..." Additionally, he grants the book is realist, "to the extent that it takes states seriously as units of the international system, and that it treats skeptically efforts to superimpose idealist blueprints on complex and unruly realities." Roth calls the use of the term neoconservative "especially troubling" as it implies an association with an American right-wing movement which "stands for propositions diametrically opposed to the book's central arguments."
