Explore the complex relationship between race and international law in this thought-provoking webinar. Delve into the historical perpetuation of racist practices through legal frameworks, including slavery, colonialism, and cultural appropriation. Examine the ongoing legacy of racism in international law, from the marginalization of Africa to the lack of attention to racial issues in human rights and economic law discourses. Analyze contemporary challenges, such as climate change framing, and discuss potential changes for a more equitable future. Gain insights into the representation of historically disenfranchised groups in international law and consider the prospects for reparations. Organized by the American Society of International Law, this webinar draws inspiration from an AJIL Unbound symposium, offering a comprehensive exploration of race and international law from historical, contemporary, and forward-looking perspectives.
