Abstract:
2025 will mark the 20th anniversary of Antony Anghie’s groundbreaking work, Sovereignty, Imperialism and the Making of International Law (CUP 2005). Between 5 and 8 August 2025, we will be holding a suite of events, both in person in Melbourne, and online, to mark the occasion. On the evening of Tuesday 5 August, Professor Tony Anghie will deliver the George Turner Lecture at the Melbourne Law School. On Wednesday 6 August we will have a PhD Roundtable, and on 7 and 8 August 2025, we will be the conference to reflect on the contribution and enduring influence of the book on the field. On Thursday evening we will launch the TWAIL Handbook edited by Tony Anghie, B.S. Chimni, Vasuki Nesiah, Michael Fakhri and Karin Mickelson in a hybrid event.
In-person papers:
Abstracts are currently being invited for papers for the conference. Papers can address the legacies, formative influences, key themes and questions associated with the book. Contributions from scholars in and of the Global South are particularly encouraged. Send abstracts of 150-200 words to LP-GCIL@unimelb.edu.au with the subject header: Abstract Anghie Conf 2025. Contributions can take two formats: Papers of 15-20 minutes length and Reflections of 5-7 minutes. Please name your abstract file: Abstract_Anghi Conf_[your last name]. In the document, please specify format (paper or reflection), title, your name (last name capitalised), discipline, institutional affiliation, and your contact details. At this stage we are only requesting abstracts for those who plan to attend in person. No travel funding is available, but successful applicants will be notified by 22 December 2024 to enable them to seek funding elsewhere.
Online participation:
The Conference will be held in plenary style so there will be a limited number of spaces, however the conference will be open to attendance by all. We may have a second call for online participation in the new year.
