Amman, Jordan last October.
Great conference organised by @fesonline.bsky.social on Just Cities. Delivered a keynote on #twail, decolonial approaches to international law and rebuilding cities amidst genocide, destruction, war and conflict.

What is SWAIL's relationship to #TWAIL?
Part II discusses intersections and divergences between the two approaches.
@pilabuda.bsky.social & Marek Wasiński reflect on the discomforts SWAIL may provoke and on what SWAIL can offer scholars and practitioners.

Toronto owes me nothing. 🖤
I left Toronto with a full heart...ideas sharpened, spirit steadied, while surrounded by friends&kin. Engaging at the #TWAIL conference was uplifting. Thanks to Profs Okafor & Bawa for the invitation.

What about animal rights? Saskia Stucki reviews the various justifications for extending rights to animals and reviews state practice. This trend is being driven by the Global South, with rulings in Argentina, Ecuador, India, and Pakistan. #HumanRights #TWAIL www.ejiltalk.org/emerging-ani...
Two scholars from Qatar want to “de-Christianiz[e]” international law. But they mostly seem to hate Jews, Zionism, and AIPAC. This is #TWAIL. #CompetingPerspectives

How do regional human rights systems help protect digital rights?
In Part 1, I explore this in my latest blog post for the Federmann Cyber Security Center Cyber Law Program.

Attended day 2 of the Leiden-CLEER PhD workshop where I was invited to comment on a great paper on EU development cooperation funds. #TWAIL has reached EU law, everybody, and that is excellent news.
So excited for this virtual roundtable on #TWAIL Approaches to Jurisdiction this week on April 24 & 25 -- please join us on either or both days: ucdavislaw.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
I could go to bed. But there's important topics to hear about. #TWAIL #Palestine #InternationalLaw #ICJ #ICC
It warms my heart that @afronomicslaw.bsky.social houses my review of Oreva Olakpe's @hartpublishing.bsky.social SLAS_UK award winning book which #TWAILs south-south migration here afronomicslaw.org/category/ana....

Is there a right to secession? Ethiopia has reportedly recognized Somaliland as a state. Dejen Messele explains how Ethiopia’s changing identity in the international system has affected its views on statehood. #CompetingPerspectives #TWAIL www.ejiltalk.org/a-sympathy-b...
The afternoon #TWAIL listen. Very instructive and interesting (especially in light of recent developments a the ICJ): www.ejiltalk.org/ejil-the-pod...
New research: Giovanni Mantilla argues that social pressure by #TWAIL states drove Additional Protocols I and II on armed conflict & created leadership capture of powerful states. Sometimes weak states win #CompetingPerspectives #ArmedConflict

What does it mean to be a state? Are these standards inherently racist and colonial? Alonso Gurmendi asks these questions in relation to Palestine. #CompetingPerspectives #TWAIL @opiniojuris @Alonso_GD

Big ideas, bold claims: Does the Western desire to spread universal democracy and political right inherently promote international conflict? Is there “intrinsic value” in “diverse political systems”? #HumanRights #UseOfForce #TWAIL doi.org/10.1093/chin...
Elgar has a sale on its #research handbooks. I was thinking of buying this one, but then I noticed that only 1/17 chapters is authored by a women, & that there are no chapters on #feminist theory or #TWAIL. Alexander Orakhelashvili, try harder....
Thoroughly interesting & important piece @VictorKattan on lack of citing of #Palestinian scholars in scholarship & legal proceedings. An essential read for all #intlaw scholars. #TWAIL...
