ESIL IG on Critical Approaches to International Law

New co-authored chapter alert!
What if we think of institutional ignorance as a practice and achievement rather than a failure? Using the case of the US military's responses to civilian casualty allegations as an example, we develop suggestions for researching organized ignorance. 1/

The ESIL IG on IL & Tech has done an amazing job in putting together such a fascinating program. And more importantly, the conveners succeeded in inviting Francesca Albanese and Eyal Weizman to speak at FU Berlin - a courageous move that makes our participation at ESIL possible. Thank you!

This cutting edge program will surely be a highlight of the coming international law conversations in Berlin this fall.

Among other perspectives, I will get to present for the first time my evolving project on critical legal metaphorologies of the sea.

The event features great colleagues, including @juliagalera.bsky.social René Urueña Ignacio Perotti Pinciroli @mwewerinke.bsky.social Nina Prusac @juanauz.bsky.social @itamann.bsky.social Andreas Piperides Khaled Elmahmoud @cschwoebel.bsky.social Zeina Jallad and @alonso-gd.bsky.social

The program for our @esil-sedi.bsky.social pre-conference workshop is out now esil-sedi.eu/wp-content/u...

Please join us in Berlin on September 11 for the important conversations about critical methodologies in IL and the failures and promises of IL in the context of genocide in Gaza.

My working paper on international law and otherness has just been published, and I would love to hear what you, my only but faithful readers, might think of it. It is written for students, so the aim was to be concise, which means some sacrifices had to be made.

You might wonder about the choice for our logo so we encourage you to check the work of Liubov Popova, a Russian-Soviet avant-garde artist whose work embodied the revolutionary spirit of the early Soviet era.
