Description

I. INTRODUCTION It is a singular honor to speak at this symposium on lawfare. I thank most deeply the organizers of the symposium for their forward-looking stance in choosing this evocative topic for a theme. In many senses, lawfare is the opposite, indeed, the very antithesis of warfare. "Warfare" is the ancient, primitive, and largely discredited mode of dispute resolution between nations and among peoples. "Lawfare," on the other hand, has all the civilized undertones of letting the law fare well in the struggle to achieve peaceful resolution of disputes. It has the ring of due process, of the doctrine of the rule of law, and rule of reason--of the principles of fairness, equity, and justice in bringing a peaceful end to a violent conflict. We have Case Western Reserve University's erudite minds to thank for this creativity and genius of christening our theme.
