The outrageous privatized aid plan for Gaza is a violation of international law and another confirmation that Gaza is being treated as a domestic problem, manageable by extralegal solutions #StopTheBlockade

Glad to see this article now out. Part of a special issue on the history of international law, I write on, and against, the erasure of the Marxist tradition in the international legal history of decolonisation.

I wrote a short piece on tariffs, sabotage and the end/s of international economic law for the good people of the @lpeblog.bsky.social. I almost had a nervous breakdown writing this, so you might as well read it lpeproject.org/blog/on-tari...
On Tariffs and the Ends of International Economic Law
For decades, the rules of international trade helped cement U.S. firms at the top of global value chains. Should Trump's unapologetic embrace of tariffs be understood as part of a broader loss of…

To everyone’s huge surprise, the IDF’s factual claims regarding the incident turned out not to be reflective of reality www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/w...
Video Shows Aid Workers Killed in Gaza Under Gunfire Barrage, With Ambulance Lights On
The U.N. has said Israel killed the workers. The video appears to contradict Israel’s version of events, which said the vehicles were “advancing suspiciously” without headlights or emergency signals.

Very exciting, there is a new learned society in legal studies, the Legal Humanities Association. It's based in the UK but very explicitly international in focus. It aims to foster a community dedicated to cultural understandings of law. legalhumanities.com
