Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: While IR delves to some degree into the effect of power on legal processes, it too often neglects the effect of law in shaping power relations in the first place. As Andrew Hurrell argues, Legal rules and relations are important, then, in so far as they constitute the game of power politics. But they are also important more directly in stabilizing and legitimizing the power of particular actors. This paper considers the effect of the international human rights regime on shaping power and interest in international relations. This paper argues that change in international relations concerns the degree of anarchy in the international system. Human rights have constituted change in international relations insofar as they mitigate international anarchy by constraining the parameters by which the legitimate use of force may be exercised. By serving as decentralized authority structures in international relations, human rights show that microlevel phenomena such as the creation of institutions or changes in the patterns of interaction between actors can cause system-wide, macrolevel changes in the conditions of international anarchy.
