Abstract

In brief the contribution argues that particular interests are often dressed up as common interests, e.g. when postulating an underlying natural law or even natural rights. As much as it is a problem for 19 states to agree on common interests, it is a problem that what is presented as common interest often prove to be home grown norms and particular interests
