Velimir Zivkovic @vzivkovic.bsky.social · 16/11/2024No, it is not disputed that it is valid - not considering it valid would bring a whole new level of chaos. The question is rather what is meaningful in this context and to what extent should it matter. 010 1
Velimir Zivkovic @vzivkovic.bsky.social · 16/11/2024But then, of course, the question of any 'meaningful' alternative is equally convoluted. I grappled with this when working on the conclusion of investment protection treaties, which are perhaps the best example of the above. 000 0
Velimir Zivkovic @vzivkovic.bsky.social · 16/11/2024It is questionable if states meaningfully consent even now, bearing in mind the mind-boggling complexity of the modern state, let alone of the society. Is it meaningful if an obscure treaty, proposed by 2 people in one of 120 departments gets ratified by a parliament in which no-one read it? 120 2
