Abstract
Climate Change, Malthusian Catastrophe, and a Global Rule of Law
Highlights
The paper will not directly engage the scientific question of global warming

Summary
The question of global warming has a great deal to do with Western attitudes, habits, and values, because Western ideas have come to provide the foundation and rationale for a regimen of living that is thought to be normative and conventional around the world. Viewed from this perspective, the question of climate change must confront a choice between two alternative methods of regulating human affairs that exist within the Western tradition.
