We also reflect on the role of legal and feminist geographers:
To trace the spatialities of international justice,
to challenge asymmetries of power,
and to expand what justice can look like—beyond The Hague.

In the piece, we propose concrete reforms:
⚖️ Expand the ICC’s mandate
🌍 Decentralise legal processes
🗣️ Integrate local and survivor-driven approaches to justice
This isn’t just a legal critique—it’s a call for geographically attuned global justice.

We argue that feminist geopolitics offers a way to think beyond critique.
By centering structural violence, intersectionality, and survivor-led approaches, we can begin to imagine alternative legal futures—more grounded, inclusive, and responsive to place.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) was meant to deliver universal justice.
But in practice? It’s shaped by geopolitical power, legal formalism, and exclusionary procedures.
What does this mean for survivors, marginalised communities—and for geographers?

#Evictions are not just legal procedures. They are deeply social events. They reflect & reproduce inequality, urban restructuring, and shrinking spaces of belonging.

Based on my #ethnographic fieldwork in German District courts, i trace how #judges, #lawyers & #bailiffs interpret and apply eviction law — and how social realities often disappear behind legal routines.

Yesterday I gave a talk at the Geographical Colloquium at the University of Halle-Wittenberg on a topic that remains urgent: #Evictions in times of overlapping crises 🏠⚖️
What happens when legal arguments meet existential #housing loss? And how do #courts become driving forces of urban displacement?

Wir haben theoretische Ansätze & Forschungsperspektiven geteilt:
– wie beeinflussen Geschlecht, Rassismus & rechtliche Hürden Wohnverhältnisse?
– Warum ist Wohnraum oft unsicher & ungleich verteilt?
– Was müsste eine Justiz im Bereich des Wohnens leisten, die gerecht & fürsorglich ist? ⤵️

Gestern in der MONAliesA – feministische Bibliothek & archiv Leipzig:
Meine Kollegin, Tabea Latocha und ich, durften zum Thema Feministische Wohnungspolitik sprechen. 🏠💜
▶️ Wie hängen Wohnen und Prekarität zusammen?
▶️ Was bedeutet es, sich zuhause zu fühlen – und wer wird davon ausgeschlossen?

It also means a lot that my public-facing work—journalism, mentoring, and community-building—was part of this recognition.
Deep thanks to everyone who’s shaped this path with me, and to Dr. Rickie Sanders for paving the way. 💜

Huge thanks to @goetheuni.bsky.social for backing this idea early on 🙏
I’m excited to dig deeper and develop this with my collaborator (@kbrickell.bsky.social) + conversations across #legalgeography #urbanstudies #criticalfinance
More soon. And if you’re working on similar stuff—let’s connect!

This builds on previous work i’ve done around evictions + housing precarity, but now with a sharper focus on debt as a relational force: a promise, a burden, a constraint—and sometimes, a weapon.
How does the law facilitate or challenge that?

I’ll be focusing on the intersection of
⚖️ legal infrastructures,
📍 urban space, and
📉 social inequalities—
to understand how financial obligations are made, stretched, and resisted in everyday housing struggles.

This project asks how debt—in all its legal, spatial, and social forms—shapes urban life today.
Who gets indebted? Under what conditions? And how are these debts lived, contested, or enforced in cities under pressure from rent hikes, evictions, and real estate speculation?
