The Human Right to Individual Freedom: A Symposium on World Habeas Corpus, edited by Luis Kutner — SIGNED, Inscribed to Paul G. Hoffman Up for sale is a first edition of The Human Right to Individual Freedom: A Symposium on World Habeas Corpus (1970), edited by Luis Kutner, with an introduction by noted legal scholar Roscoe Pound. Signed and inscribed by the editor. The inscription reads: "For Paul Hoffman, a really great man of his time." A meaningful association copy. This volume compiles contributions from international legal scholars on the concept of "world habeas corpus" — an international legal mechanism proposed to protect individuals from unlawful detention worldwide. Its editor, Luis Kutner (1908–1993), was a prominent human rights lawyer, co-founder of Amnesty International, and creator of the modern living will. This copy is inscribed to Paul G. Hoffman, president of the Studebaker Corporation, first Administrator of the Economic Cooperation Administration (ECA) overseeing the Marshall Plan, and later the first Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme — a fitting recipient for a book centered on international human rights and global cooperation, echoing the same postwar internationalist spirit that defined both men's careers.
