The Judicial Revolution

Abstract

A revolution may not necessarily take place in a few days, or months, or even years, but it can manifest itself in a very slow and prolonged manner. Such appears to be the nature of the judicial revolution, one of the most important developments of our global epoch. Almost unnoticed as a result, it is nonetheless of enormous significance for the emergence of the concept of Humanity. It is a truly consequential “happening,” deserving of the rubric revolution.1
