    Abstract

    This paper explores the views of Professor Julius Stone on the principles of international law as he perceived them to apply to the Middle East. Tllis paper is neither an indictment of Stone or his substantive views, nor a detailed exploration of the situation in the Middle East. It is more a meditation on the relationship between method and motive, The conclusion reached in this paper challenges the notion, at least when it comes to issues concerning the Middle East, that Stone was a humanist; he was indeed something much more profound, he was fallibly human. Stone was a man endowed with the highest faculties of human reason. Passion, however, remained as much a part of him as it does the rest of mankind.
