Summary:

While mainstream international legal scholarship has long treated race as a peripheral concern, or a historic injustice to be remembered but not redressed, this volume argues that racialisation is foundational to the discipline, underpinning its doctrines, epistemes, and interlocutors. 'Emancipating International Law' explores the many ways racial hierarchy, systemic oppression, and global white supremacy shape international law. Bringing together leading and emerging scholars, the collection moves beyond qualifying whether international law is racist to explore how racial hierarchies are embedded in its structures and continue to evolve through legal and institutional practice
