- W3136452398 abstract "Linnaean Taxonomy and Globalized Law reviews and critiques Justice Stephen Breyer’s newest book, The Court and the World (2015). In this work, Justice Breyer forcefully argues that the U.S. domestic courts have no choice but to engage foreign and international law because “[m]ore and more, cases before the [domestic courts] involve foreign activity” and posits that “the best way to preserve American constitutional values (a major objective that I hold in common with those who fear the influence of foreign law) is to meet the challenges that the world. . . actually presents.” (Pp. 3-4, 8.) Justice Breyer observes that an ever-more globalized economy will generate legal disputes that increasingly implicate the laws of more than one country; he also argues, persuasively, that the enforcement of international treaties will require transnational cooperation across national judicial systems. More controversially, however, Justice Breyer also forcefully advocates the “cross-referencing” of foreign and international law and sustained efforts to harmonize our domestic law with rules developed abroad. (Pp. 244-46.) This review essay carefully considers Justice Breyer’s main arguments and proofs; it concludes that although he makes a compelling case for the increasing globalization of legal disputes, his broader and more general arguments for judicial efforts to harmonize (or “cross-reference”) domestic law with foreign and international legal materials are considerably less convincing. Linnaean Taxonomy and Globalized Law posits that we need to develop and deploy a system of descriptive rules – a taxonomy – that accurately and reliably identifies cases that require consideration of foreign and international law and those that do not. Objecting to the U.S. domestic courts considering foreign and international law is nonsensical when recourse to such material is essential to the proper resolution of a pending legal dispute – and enjoys the imprimatur of the political branches to boot. On the other hand, however, consideration of foreign and international law in the absence of any decisional necessity for doing so raises serious and difficult questions of both institutional legitimacy and competence. We can and should distinguish the need to disentangle complex transnational conflict-of-laws problems, as well as questions rooted in international law, from more general, abstract claims about the creation of a globalized system of law. To accomplish this task, I argue that our domestic courts will need to develop and deploy a taxonomy of transnational judicial engagement that carefully identifies and distinguishes one kind of engagement with foreign and international law from the other." @default.
