Prometheus’s Blind Spot: Invoking Rules and Political Histories of Fire

This study is a response to the observation that people articulate meanings of rules in flexible and context-specific ways, but that literature on international legal, norm-based, strategic-logical, and ethical/moral rules typically treats them as pregiven, stable objects.
