Roundtable Discussion: TWAIL, Geopolitical Competition, and The Rise Of Non-Western Imperialisms

Apr. 11, 2024
4:30PM - 6:30PM
SLB Room 128
Open to the YLS Community Only

Roundtable Presenters: Anastasiya Kotova, Rob Knox, Vasuki Nesiah, and Ntina Tzouvala

Moderated by Professor Aslı Bâli. 

This roundtable discussion will be part of a 1.5 day workshop — the first gathering of a group of leading and emerging critical international law scholars, invited to analyze the implications of the rise of non-Western hegemons for the international legal order — some applying a Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) lens in their scholarship, and some identifying with other critical trends, including Marxist and LPE approaches. In particular, we are convening these scholars to consider how to (re)conceptualize imperialism and hegemony at a time when the distribution of geopolitical power has shifted away from the West and the former imperial powers of Europe.
