Abstract

The assassination of foreign leaders is rarely considered by scholars of international affairs. This article examines the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and the debates around the international tribunal formed to investigate it. It argues that the assassination of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri is an instance of how issues of foreign policy intersect with the perennial themes of international organization and law. It pays particular attention to how the international norm against political assassinations remains a contested issue in international politics.
