Out now: International Law and Architecture
Edited by @renskevos.bsky.social, @sofiastolk.bsky.social and @miriambakmck.bsky.social

Free - read the Introduction on Elgaronline: doi.org/10.4337/9781...

Available in print through our website: www.e-elgar.com/shop/isbn/97...
Through eye-catching design or bureaucratic functionality, buildings make international law tangible for its practitioners, audiences and constituencies. This compelling book furthers our understanding of the impact of architecture on the field of international law with imagination and style. Chapters engage with questions surrounding the relationship between architecture and identity construction, public reception, (de)colonial ordering, affect and spatial politics. Offering a range of perspectives on the role of architecture in shaping international law, the impressive group of contributors set out a new transdisciplinary enquiry into law, space, and aesthetics. The book highlights how the material, visual, and spatial realms influence international law’s norms, values, histories, as well as our individual experiences and expectations of the law.

Beneath the Buzzword of “Interaction”
We talk about “interaction” as if it were self-evident — something everyone needs more of, something that can be improved, managed, or taught. In this blog, Melisa Stevanovic explores what lies beneath that comforting word: the fragile, complex process through which people build understanding and hold the social world together.

Just published my second book this year: www.e-elgar.com/shop/gbp/adv.... Unlike 'Malthus Enigma', which is for a general reader, my new book is more technical. It draws upon 30 years experience advising governments and international institutions on climate and sustainability solutions.
