Climate Justice: Resisting Marginalization
Climate Justice: Resisting Marginalisation examines the impact of climate change on marginalized communities across the globe and the different ways of resisting these impacts. The book underlines the imbalanced consequences of climate change, driven by the power disparities between the global North and South. It investigates how climate change aggravates structural inequalities, focusing on the intersectionality of gender, race, technology, and …
Can data justice be global? Exploring the practice of digital rights, and the search for cognitive data justice
This paper explores what makes data justice global by examining how it can be used in different contexts. It argues that the practice of digital rights can inform theory building around data justice because these practices offer grounded experiences of how to govern data with an emphasis on justice, equity, and equality. By engaging with the work of digital rights groups and activists as critical knowledge-making functionaries, the paper advances…
Rebooting the global consensus: Norm entrepreneurship, data governance and the inalienability of digital bodies
The establishment of norms among states is a common way of governing international actions. This article analyses the potential of norm-building for governing data and artificial intelligence technologies' collective effects. Rather than focusing on state actors's ability to establish and enforce norms, however, we identify a contrasting process taking place among civil society organisations in response to the international neoliberal consensus o…
Why are sector transgressions so hard to govern? Reflections from Europe’s pandemic experience
In this commentary, we address the notion of ‘sector transgressions’, which we define as a problem of infrastructural power with features of regulatory capture. During the pandemic, new markets were created for public service provision in many fields, including but not limited to public health, and governments in the EU decreased regulatory controls on the private provision of public services. The results included increased government readiness t…
Ideas, narratives and experiences. A reflection on legal pluralism and the cause of justice in South Asia
Digitisation and Sovereignty in Humanitarian Space: Technologies, Territories and Tensions
Debates are ongoing on the limits of - and possibilities for - sovereignty in the digital era. While most observers spotlight the implications of the Internet, cryptocurrencies, artificial intelligence/machine learning and advanced data analytics for the sovereignty of nation states, a critical yet under examined question concerns what digital innovations mean for authority, power and control in the humanitarian sphere in which different rules, v…

Mutinies for Equality: Contemporary Developments in Law and Gender in India
Mutinies for Equality studies recent transformations in the area of law and gender in modern India. It tackles legal and social developments with regard to family life, sexuality, motherhood, surrogacy, erotic labour, sexual harassment in the workplace and violence against women, among others. It analyses reform efforts towards women's rights and LGBTIQ rights and attempts to situate where a reform has taken place, by whom it was brought about, a…
The teaching of Law and Development: Towards inclusiveness and reflexivity across time zones
An exploratory qualitative analysis of Law and Development (L&D) course descriptions reveals plurality and heterodoxy across time zones through the way in which they approach ‘law’ and ‘development’. We see this contestedness as a manifestation of the inherent power asymmetries of the field and offer the notion of time zones to better describe plural and contested forms of L&D knowledge. We seek to explore teaching as an important arena where kno…
