Description

Explores how to apply TWAIL teaching methods to economic international law subjects. Participants examine how TWAIL’s anti-subordination focus is relevant to recent global economic challenges. Presenters focus on specific legal regimes, such as climate change, international trade, and neo-liberal policies. They explain how international law creates new divisions and that these distinctions are continually re-formulated. Examples include the increasing foreign relations influence of Brazil, China, Russia, India, and South Africa; trade rules favoring industrial or high-tech states; the diminishing divide between domestic and foreign struggles; and the viability of globalization after the 2008 economic crisis.
