Plunder examines the dark side of the Rule of Law and explores how it has been used as a powerful political weapon by Western countries in order to legitimize plunder вЂ“ the practice of violent extraction by stronger political actors victimizing weaker ones.

Challenges traditionally held beliefs in the sanctity of the Rule of Law by exposing its dark side
Examines the Rule of Law's relationship with 'plunder' вЂ“ the practice of violent extraction by stronger political actors victimizing weaker ones вЂ“ in the service of Western cultural and economic domination
Provides global examples of plunder: of oil in Iraq; of ideas in the form of Western patents and intellectual property rights imposed on weaker peoples; and of liberty in the United States
Dares to ask the paradoxical question вЂ“ is the Rule of Law itself illegal?
