Tony's tour de force on TWAIL, Thucydides, theory, temporality, territory, tradition & teaching
final session for today: Amar Bhatia, Dayanna Palmar & Tony Anghie on migration & displacement - from colonisers & corporations as 'sovereign aliens' in Grotius's imperial legal worldview, to Indigenous cosmologies in the Wayuu territory in Colombia/Venezuela today #TwailrAcademy
new day at the TWAILR academy starts with another session on migration & displacement - João Roriz telling us about his work with refugees and migrants in central Brazil
Juan Amaya: we have a global migration control regime, there are commonalities & crucial differences between how migration control operates in a state in the south like Colombia vs. eg the EU which still holds on the fantasy of control of the border, no matter the cost of life
Usha Natarajan, María Carolina Olarte, Sergio Latorre & Kishan Khoday on the challenges for environmental justice, from water shortages in the middle east to criminalization of environmental protest in Colombia #TwailrAcademy
Economic injustice panel with Lina Céspedes, Amaka Vanni and Enrique Prieto-Rios #TwailrAcademy
Fourth and final day here at the TWAILR academy starting with Fabia Fernandes Carvalho introducing Liliana Obregón for a keynote session on TWAIL & Latin America
Amaya Alvez on the power of the social protests in Chile in 2019 with Indigenous demands at the core, to the disappointment of the rejection of the new draft constitution in 2022 as an anti-Indigenous backlash
Apart from all of these plenary sessions, we had writing workshops running all week where more than 50 papers from all our wonderful participants were read & discussed & given feedback by their peers and faculty discussants
