Jan-Werner Müller · No one is further right than me: Mussolini to Meloni Great significance has been attributed to the government of Giorgia Meloni, who became Italy’s prime minister in 2022...

‘While Giorgia Meloni has proved to be shrewd on the national and the international stage, she is also operating in a country where the normalisation of the far right has been advancing for decades.’

Statement by International Lawyers, ESIL Members, and ESIL Interest Group Convenors related to the 2025 ESIL Annual Conference at Freie Universität Berlin

I am a signatory of this letter, but I am also a keen observer of my field since the genocide started in 2023. The gap opening between parts of my field is massive and does not follow prior methodological divides.
International law is a discipline in crisis.
