title = "The Mainstream and the Intersubjective in International Law: From Objectivity to Imagination",
abstract = "This paper argues that international law can best be understood from an intersubjective lens — an engagement of varying subjectivities searching for legal objectivity. This intersubjectivity is guided by the twin components of the legal imagination that we identify as the constitutive and the interpretative imagination. It is within these imaginative exercises that the legal rhetoric operates and ultimately shapes our worldview of international law that is both subjective and objective at the same time.",
