- Abstract:
The article discusses what is referred to as legal transnationalism (LT) and opposition to it from former U.S. Senator John Kyle. LT refers to the influencing of U.S. laws by international entities such as the United Nations (UN). Kyle argues that LT is inimical to sovereignty and the U.S. theory of government, and should be embraced only when there are obvious benefits to doing so. Examples of LT noted include the UN's Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women.
