It is 20 years since Conor Gearty gave the Hamlyn Lectures on Can Human Rights Survive?
As a mark of respect following the dreadful news of his, Cambridge University Press & Assessment has made these lectures Open Access for the remainder of the year. You can find them here:

On the passing of Conor Gearty - Doing Feminist Legal Work
In my early twenties I once got on a train to Durham that didn’t stop at Durham because I was so engrossed in a book. That, you might think, is to be expected

My book is out today!
In "Interception," @bernardkeenan.bsky.social exposes the complex, largely obscure history of a covert and fundamental connection between the secret powers of the state and the means by which we communicate our everyday lives:

My first book is out on 27 May with @mitpress.bsky.social. It offers a media history of the power to intercept communications in Britain from the foundation of the Post Office to the (near) present, and the changing relationship between law, sovereignty, and media.

Join our workshop today at 9:00am in 101D at RightsCon with @marwasf.bsky.social @giuliowolfe.bsky.social and Caterina Rodelli
Occupation + digital tech = a whole new level of surveillance and abuse. Think tracking data for killing targets with their families in Palestine + Russia rerouting mobile and internet data in Ukraine. The accountability gap? It’s MASSIVE. So, what can we do about it?

If a boy and his cat emerged alive from under a ruined building in literally any other part of the world, there would be scores of heartwarming news stories about it. The dehumanizing treatment of Palestinians is the great abomination of our age.
