Week 4 International law and international regimes

For this week we will discuss some recent cases in international law, including the

infamous Pinochet case.  To prepare for this discussion, listen to this interview with

Noam Chomsky on the case.  The main theme of the interview occurs in the first

12 minutes. What is Chomsky's critique of international law?  What does he mean

when he says international law is 'designed to punish the weak'?  Do you agree

with his argument?  What is your view about the Pinochet case?
