		Hisashi Owada, Diplomacy Reconsidered: Essay on the Re-Examination of a Legal Framework for Diplomacy, 27 N.Y.U. In his speech, Diplomacy Reconsidered: Essay on the Re-Examination of a Legal Framework for Diplomacy, Professor Hisashi Owada asserts that there are two sources of change in global relations that call for a re-examination of the current legal framework.
		Owada argues that this insufficiency is created because “this regulatory framework [emanating from the Treaty of Westphalia] naturally reflects the policy perspectives of each sovereign nation acting primarily in its own national interests.”
		Another source of change in global relations Owada argues “is people’s increasing willingness to assert the primacy of the human dignity of the individual and to cherish this as a common universal value.” Owada asserts that the current international justice system does not appropriately account for a pluralistic approach to values.
